They don't want dumbasses there either. Turns out when your war is a silent game of hide and seek where the loser dies you have to be kind of smart.

I know that to be true, but if someone is claiming all enlisted personnel are window lickers the best way to prove them wrong immediately is to focus on the technical skill of the average servicemen.

Yeah infantry tactics aren't for the stupid, not in modern wars at least. Advanced weapon systems and battlefield strategy require someone of reasonable intellect.
