I agree. I have a tremendous amount of respect for him also. The reactions to him from another poster were way out of line. When you, I, and others are done with our debating and boasting it's the poor lads in uniform who must "do the deed". He is coming from that angle. It is also true that the USA's foreign policy has become a tad bit like Victorian Britian's and the Roman empire.

Irregardless... must back our boys.

Bingo, my friend. That's the bottom line.

My son did not have to join the Arm 10 years ago. But he did because he counsciously chose to.

He's a better person today because of that choice. Those who serve are there because they choose to serve, regardless of their circumstances.

We do NOT need a draft; our military is doing very well without one, thankyouverymuch.
