I said against my will, now. Facts not in evidence are assumptions and you make a LOT of ass umptions. I enlisted in the Corps and am proud to have served. We now have an all volunteer military and those who are patriotic enough to serve are too precious a resource to waste on the fantasies of some nutcase who fancies them self the equal of an ancient Chinese general.You're a living example of the truism that all soldiers have strong opinions and many of them will tend to be opposed to fighting the battles they've had to personally participate in. And in grousing about their assigned duties, they're exactly the same as all other working stiffs in the civilian world.

Funny, a few comments back you were saying that since I'm a citizen and have a vote I'm exactly the right sort of person qualified to have an opinion on who should fight and die where.
So, do I as a voter get a say or are those who have served and been honorably discharged not allowed to vote when the subject is sending troops somewhere?
