Rubbish. Soldiers have a duty to "die for their country". Innocent civilians
don't.

Somehow I doubt that anyone who could write these words ever served in
the military, in war or peace. When I carried a rifle for the U.S.
Army, I was an innocent as any civilian--more innocent than many.

What I hear speaking is someone who knows that he never was and never
will be sent in harm's way.
