LOL! Of course the traditional ameriKan ways is that only the fizicly and mentally fittest were allowed into the great murder-suicide machine. Moloch demands only the best and brightest young men!
You've brought up an issue I've never heard mentioned despite it being obviously very major. My thesis is that humanity's in such a sorry state because of these endless wars, maybe 100k years' worth. Let's put it this way -- would the quality of ameriKa's life and population be worse or better if.....
*650,000 prime youth weren't killed in the un-civil war? Every Southern male capable of shouldering a rifle was pressed into service.
*350,000 prime young WHITE lives weren't sacrificed to the diversity god fighting to liberate the poor pitiful kikes in WW2 -- permanently putting ameriKa's existence on a purely 'diversity' footing?
*the tradition hadn't continued with over 100,000 more lost in Viet an Korea?
I'm forcing meself not to go into the many and vast kinds of blowback these losses entail. It's a huge effort, but duty calls. They call me Professor Overkill ;)

Yes, sir.
Do a little search on this topic online and you'll find little work addressing the question of how large scale warfare affects the human stock that comes out of the machine alive and qualities of their descendants.
Prolly not a subject that most researchers or academics would propose to their supervisors these days.
