Well, have you heard some of the speeches their superiors give them?

I remember one soldier stated in a book that his officer told the new replacements to "shoot first" because he would rather do the paperwork than lose a soldier to a Taliban (he used an offensive term but I don't remember what it was).

This was either Iraq or Afghanistan, by the way. So it wasn't like 100 years ago.

I'm sure they're made to believe their enemies are less than human.

War is hell on any person on both sides. No matter who fights is left with scars forever, even our Apostle who ia a Meadal of Honor recipiant has his moments. We can only hope he finds the healing he needs someday. This is why so many commit suicide.

He is guilty of nothing that every last member of the marines is...MURDER. Everyone who supports the military goes against the teaching and doctrine of Christ and are guilty of murder and are going to be faced with eternal damnation at the white throne judgement....yeah, I meant they are ALL going to hell. Especially him. Especially his Muslim victim as we'll.... Talk about poetic justice....

soldier without a true army.
