Why BYU grads would already make good soldiers

This was apart of an address by a general of the US Army addressing BYU grads of the war, and this was thrown in. I loved it, but funnily enough, we already are soldiers fighting an endless battle for righteousness.
Here's the humor:
1 — They understand how far Iraq has come over the last seven years, and they think that Iraq's old spot in the "Axis of Evil" can now be filled by the University of Utah.
2 — They are the world's most reliable designated drivers.
3 — They always have a years' supply of provisions on hand.
4 — They have innovative ideas for handling insurgents — like assigning them home teachers.
5 — They know how to make things happen. In fact if you ever need a base built quickly in a barren wasteland, stride out to where you want them to start, plant your walking stick down and say in a loud voice, "This is the place."
6 — They will seize any objective swiftly if you tell them refreshments will be served.
7 — They never go AWOL. They just call it being less active.
8 — It's not a problem if they don't know what rank someone is, they just refer to them as Brother or Sister so-and-so
9 — Army chow is no problem for folks accustomed to eating green Jell-o and shredded carrots.
10 — They have already been on many a mission.
