However, you are the only one I know of who had the gall to compare euthanasia to the courage that those in combat exhibit when sacrificing their lives for their comrades and THAT makes you truly vile.
Define euthanasia.

From what I have been reading from others, euthanasia is killing others because they are ill. It would be no morally different than military pilots shooting down their wingmen so that their planes will crash into enemy ships or troop formations.

Well exactly. Both are murder. A military superior, in battle, may use force (including deadly force) against a member of his own military only under very proscribed circumstances. Ther one you cite would lead to murder charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
