72. That statement rings of truth.
We're all called to the moral high road and to use our intellects. People who join the military can't be so easily let off the hook for their choices. Plenty of people decide NOT to join the military for reasons of conscience. Granted, some of these soldiers and marines are seduced into joining up by unscrupulous military headhunters who prey on young impressionable high-schoolers. But many join up to defend "God and country." Any one who did that during *s regime is morally bankrupt or just plain stooo-pid.
