Until the draft and Vietnam, SDA’s served in noncombatant roles in the military.

A lot of grunts and leathernecks owe their lives to unarmed SDA combat medics.

Thank you for being one to recognize pacifism is not necessarily cowardice and performing noncombat roles, like medics, is as important to the success of war as any soldiers.

Not downplaying their roles. I just see there being a conflict between strongly held pacifist beliefs and being an effective Commander in Chief.
