Then play honest - give the young a strong impression of real war, not showbiz. If then they still wish to join, okay. It is immoral to cheat and trick somebody into joining by showing-off like this and hiding the grim truth at the same time.

Airliners, btw usually try to fly in a way to keep risks as low as possible. Airshows like the Blkue Angels try exactly the opposite and mock the devil while trying to get away with it. Well, maybe I have a too cold temper to be impressed by such schoolyard behavior. I don't see neither value nor pride in taking greater risks than needed, or taking risks for something that is not worth it.
