The Army and Marines exclude anyone who can't score at the 30th percentile of the ASVAB, the safer Air Force and Navy can afford to be more picky and only admit those that reach the 50th. Blacks are badly hurt by this, but they're still overrepresented in the USAF/Navy.

The Army lets you pick your MOS and blacks drift into the safest possible jobs. https://usiraq.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=000671#miltfatstat …

Tracks what I've seen which is disaffected suburbanites, nationalist Mexicans, and blacks who weren't cool enough to go into gangs.
