Some woud say that is the problem, but I believe it sobering to consider how a soldier and peace loving individual can not only co-exist in the same world, but also perhaps in the same person. It is comforting to know we all want the same thing. PEACE bro. Bless our troops.

I'm glad that you DO understand that a being a soldier does not necessarily mean being a senseless, killing machine. That's a Marine.
(lol, I'm just kidding. I have great admiration for those guys)
But you already said how it works, so no need to repeat it :B

When Froze first told me he was going into the service i was proud for more than a few reasons, one being it would give him a chance to do something different than the average person working in a Walmart and having no career direction or goals. The opportunity to not only make a difference for the U.S. possibly someday on a battlefield (no matter what the likelihood), but also the chance to find a direction and a place in society thereafter has to be applauded. So many want to sit on the sidelines in their warm, comfy chair, pointing fingers or protesting, and in some cases their protest do have validity. But from experience i can only say "more power to you", Froze, your doing a good thing for the country and yourself. And both will be the better for it! Happy New Year, man...

And you are absolutely right, sir, being in the ARMY is a hell of a lot better than Walmart, you even get treated better
And you said a key thing: I'm doing something that's not only good for the country, nor something that's only good for me, but for both.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well!!! And for everyone else!!!
