You're confusing the issue. Soldiers, even 18 year old ones, are doing that as their profession full time and trained to do so. (aside from the overall question on whether it's good to be having kids trained to kill). Students are students. Their job is to be students, not administrators or full time workers. That's why things run and maintained by students typically don't have the follow through and professionalism of people who are paid to do it.
