Your average military person is in a non combat position. The US military is not a bunch of guns with a few people behind the lines. It is the biggest logistics company in the world who happens to also have a few guns. Yeah you are right that pointy spear people tend to not do well in mundane jobs, but most military personnel are not pointy spear people.
There's a reason the operational/combat are considered the "tip of the spear." It's because the vast majority consist of the shaft that supports it.
