You have a good point.
When a person volunteers to serve, especially in a time of war, they have crossed a substantial line that many...uh.....liberals refuse to cross. Crossing that line puts you on the roulette table of duty, from a desk job in a threat area, to actual combat, to being the target of a lethal round.
Death has come to many soldiers as they slept in their bunks, or while typing at a desk. We all knew of this endangerment when we joined the military. Some of us accepted higher threats, but we all accepted the duty and whatever luck went with it.
But those who served in high-threat combat deserve the best and a special respect from every citizen. I, for one, believe that they will receive the best that God has to offer, for there is no greater duty in life than to fight evil.
God Bless our warriors!
I come from a military family, Ex Husband, Husband and my Son are all active duty. But trying to explain to my Liberal Mother that my Son (Corpseman with FMF) will not be picked off in a battle because of what his job is, is near impossible. It's all "GW's illegal war" and I am sending my Son off to die for oil. It so infuriated us that she has been uninvited from his wedding next month.
It baffles the mind how poisoned she has become. Her and I are the only members of my immediate family who have never served. But now she considers military members as either victims or criminals. Crazy B*tch.
