Your ethics about not doing it for the money are commendable.

I would like to point out something, Love4Peace. Your screen name doesn't really match what you're advocating.

It seems to me, that the more followers of Islam the USA kills, that many more will become radicalized or at least bear some kind of resentment.

Maybe I'm just cynical.

but i'm not muslim .. and i just told facts ... you went too far man.
all i meant is tiding the relations .

Recent events have shown that when we relinquish the role, others are going to come in to fill the void. In one's best self interest, whom should be trusted with the role?
Regardless, if a formerly reliable acceptable authority exits, the likelihood of the bullies taking over increases markedly.

It is very evident with all of the recent events what happens when the USA takes their eyes off the ball internationally so to speak and look inward instead.
When the rest of the world looks years ahead for planning we in the USA can't seem to even make any long term plans on our seemingly two year cycles. Congressional election cycle and the gridlock there in.

same here but we got a parliament not a senate it will require 5 years for the gouvernement so it will be changed .

you fight & you save lives , great .
it's the first time i talk to a US ex-militant .
you guys when you go to a place, you serve even foreigners to save their lives..when their military is bombing them or against you or is against another party .
even in the UN you hardly don't find a US militant medic , your type of soldier is in service even in foreigner hospitals to show & educate experiences .

Thank you, but my service was nothing dramatic. The one thing I was proud to be a part was the working end of revising the remains identification system in use before DNA, to assure accuracy for positive remains identification by processing /reprocessing thousands of troops into the new system.

and it still worth it when it comes to needing whom are in the office when something bad happens... nobody in the military just does one mission .
in urgant conditions you may end up Dead.
i have some military friends in my country and they told me .
all knows that who wears that green/grey uniform is giving his life & protecting the nation.

it's so Dramatic since you decided to join the forces.
lol you reminded me of "Grimes" in "BHD" movie & the true events.
