I'll choose B every day of the week. Hands down!
You are trying to pretend that the social contract never included that people should risk thier lives to save property....which is trying to deny reality. Yes soldiers should and do risk their lives to save property. Suppose a guy breaks into your house, you run out and call the police. The guy is in your house taking your stuff. Does the police man say, "No way I am going in there, your stuff is not worth my life. " Hell no! He goes in there with his gun drawn and you expect him to do that even for a crummy stereo and a diamond engagement ring. THAT IS HIS JOB.
We screwed up and we have not heard the last of it.
