Baby vets: get 'em while they're young

A brief notice in today's Boston Globe section about stuff to do around town begins, "Children can join the Sturbridge Militia and learn drilling exercises..."  Did no editor find this disturbing?  And is it really such a wild idea that the country can note the job veterans have performed without glorifying war?  I suspect a great number of veterans want to do that -- and learned how through the most inglorious of lessons.
