You seem to have a degree of cyniscm in your response. I'm curious, have you ever served?

Things can happen, and people can be shot at or killed in war. I remember being shot at in combat multiple times. Yes, I was scared but no, I did not all of a sudden change my philosophy about what's best for our Country and keeping it safe.

Sometimes you may have to pay a price. The longer you wait, and the more you put it off however, the price becomes much bigger.
