My ...Service certainly, but there are many sorts.<br /><br /> My great great grandfather joined the army of Norway in the 1814 war with Sweden, and never fired a shot and got farm land afterward. My dad was in Korea, but at the end, never saw and action. It all sounded pretty boring although boot camp sounded challenging.<br /><br />Now combat is flying drones and killing people at a distance or taking nudie photos of prisoners in Iraq.<br />Ares Olympushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726811306826601686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-6410207910539148902017-08-16T06:02:54.728-07:002017-08-16T06:02:54.728-07:00Tsk-tsk... someone's feelings are going to get...Tsk-tsk... someone's feelings are going to get hurt!<br /><br />“Every man thinks meanly of himself for not having been a soldier, or not having been at sea.” -- Samuel Johnson<br /><br />When I was in my early 20s, I pursued Marine Corps Officer Candidate School. I didn't get in... I was bounced for a medical issue. There was nothing I could've done, save being dishonest on my entry paperwork. One of the greatest disappointments of my life. I wish I could've done it, for the very reason Mattis points out. So I had to find other pursuits to serve, and I did. But it was a real pursuit, and in my mind nothing will substitute for what I believed the USMC would've given me in having the opportunity to serve my country.Ignatius Acton Chesterton OCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18222603717128565302noreply@blogger.com
