As pointed out by Foreverwar, they do negative points for coming from the forces.
With regards to "where has the money gone?", amry personnel don't get free lodgings while they are posted. The money is automatically deducted out of their account. As pointed out, they aren't earning fortunes as it is.
With regards to "they have kids, they shouldn't be risking their lives", that comment applies to police and fire brigade as well, surely? Due to the amount of jobs, we don't have enough childless people to cover them, factoring in that no everyone can do a job where you put your life in danger for the sake of a stranger.
