well, they tried to have 18 as the drinking age in California for several years. Changed it back due to too much increase in DWIs etc.

but you're right--it doesn't seem too fair or logical; but young men are fearless. Fearless and stupid enough to be soldiers, (no, this is not a slam against our servicemen and women); not yet grown up enough to be responsible around alcohol? dunno.
