dont take this as me disrespecting the troops tho. most of them are either ignorant kids, or people who have no real choices and the military is the best option on the table. like dude said earlier he joined for a chance to get an education and travel etc. thats why i asked why he joined. i was hoping he wasnt a brainwashed idiot thinking he was making a difference in his country.

Still gotta respect them though, even if they are brainwashed into believing they are fighting for their country, because in their own mind they are defending their own people...and that is respectable whether accurate or not.
