A army of volunteers means the men were not conscripted (were not drafted).
Draftees can be paid minimum wage.
Volunteers will be paid much more money.
A boot trainee for Vietnam was paid $90 a month.
A boot trainee for today's military exceeds a $1,000 a month.
But that's not all gravy; today's boot may have to pay for things that the draftee era men didn't have to purchase. Another words, during the draftee era (Vietnam era) everything was free...in combat even the cigarettes were free.
