I haven't really observed the attitudes described in Second Lieutenants. The summer internship (a.k.a. officer candidate school) that precedes an offer of full employment does a pretty good job of culling those who harbor such attitudes. Rigorous vetting in a high stress environment can be a great screening tool for character and commitment.
