    You know most enlisted aren’t in combat roles right? My brother did ten years behind a desk, ended up with an awesome career and got to travel the world for free.

      Huh? I didn’t mention a single thing about combat roles or personal danger. If you join the military, you’re supporting their agenda…

        You’re fun, but this is NCD, it’s all military defense jokey jokes. The only civilian defense we take seriously is Mr. Park and the Roof Koreans. You’re not really here, with these filthy rave babies, to persuade them not to join the military? It’s far too late for many commenters here, they already have bad knees and a discharge in their rearview mirrors. Try to get some perspective on your audience before you start your Ted Talk.

        To fight

        To be the arm

        To defend

        To protect

        Do you not know what any of those terms mean

        Hard to find a way to make a living without supporting an unethical agenda, unfortunately.

          Yup. The company I work for is a bit less unethical than many others. Nobody’s perfect though, and we have a yearly remembrance for people we’ve killed over the years.
