Hey, what else can the government do to stratify society, to make it clear there are serfs and their betters?
Bingo!
Being a soldier don't pay much, you loose some civil rights, and you gotta listen to cranky sergeants, and your family will live in places like Fayetteville and Oceanside and Jacksonville. Oh and in this new and shining era of the Coke and Pepsi [1] party and never-ending war you're going to get shot at and blown up on a regular basis in far-off places for reasons that have tenuous and dubious [2] connections to national security.[3]
So I guess the very least that we can do is send them to front of the line of grey dab lines. Give them some bennies that don't cost nothing and anyway the taxpayers are good for it, don't-you-care-about-the-troops and aren't-you-patriotic?
Worked for the Party in the USSR, nu? And if it further stratifies society, puts the serfs in their place, that's just gravy, man.

[2] At best.
[3] Sucks, but USMC stands for You Signed the Motherf*in Contract.
