In reading the article in the paper on Aug. 28 regarding the "drinking age," it occurred to me that there is a very simple solution to this question. It was printed that the individual at eighteen is old enough to go to war for his or her country, but not old enough to buy a beer. Induct them into the armed forces, then they can buy all the beer they can drink at the "Geedunk" (old navy term.) This way, everyone is happy right?
