Im sorry I do not feel for him. Why join the military if you do not want to serve?? HE isnt resigning..he will be discharged. He is a disgrace to those who made the decision to serve, who have served and will continue to do so. He doesnt deserve to wear the uniform.
"Colonel: Watkins why did you join the army?
Watkins: For the water-skiing and for the travel, sir. And not for the killing, sir. I asked them to put it on my form, sir - no killing.
Colonel: Watkins are you a pacifist?
Watkins: No sir, l'm not a pacifist, sir. I'm a coward."
