From a military perspective, if you are asking that question you will never understand the answer.BALAAM said:We all have to make a living and work and have some type of job. Why is it; If you are a farmer, factory worker, truck driver, etc. it is just a job. But, if you are a cop, correctional officer, military, etc. you are serving?
Also, military, police, (and may I add Firemen), and correctional officers can and are expected to sacrifice their lives so that others can live in peace. No farmer, truck driver or IT specialist is required to do that.16KJV11 said:Probably because of the low pay and risk factor.fishinnut said:
Still thinking about this.............yesterday we had a retired missionary couple over for dinner. During the conversation they told of a friend who had received the Medal of Honor. I looked his story up on youtube and found that many of the MOH stories are there. I watched 4 of them.fishinnut said:From a military perspective, if you are asking that question you will never understand the answer.BALAAM said:We all have to make a living and work and have some type of job.

It may be a learning experience to hear some of them relive their time at war.........big difference than just working, though they all say, "I was just doing my job."
Here is one example.

I'd love to take you up on that, as I have fished many a day & many a night for walleye.prophet said:If you ever get a hankering for Walleye, come up here!fishinnut said:Sometimes....but I use the sitting position a lot.prophet said:Stand in the Gap!!fishinnut said:Just endeavoring to make a difference.prophet said:So good of you.fishinnut said:I was able to go fishin 3 mornings & 2 night this week.
