Does it seem to aggravate anyone else, that our people can serve our countrie and fight and die, but not even at the legal age of 21 to have a beer?

People are legally allowed drink at the age of 21. I'm not sure where you live though, it may not be legal there.

I am sorry , I meant to say it aggravates me that they send 18 year olds to go fight, and they are not even able to drink.

Well depending on what country they end up in they can drink. Its a choice to join the military, no one forces them to. Just becasue they aren't old enough to drink doesn't make them any less dedicated to doing their job or any less capable. That and just because someone is old enough to drink doesn't mean they are going to. BTW in Cananda and Japan you can drink at 19.
