        The article compares ppl w/ bachelor's degrees to ppl w/ post-grad/prof. degrees. No one argues benefits of military training.

        Did you not notice the "professional schools" cited in the article? Also, my law school wasn't "military training".

        So maybe you need to read the article closer.
