14. Unfortunately I have...

I was in the first gulf war. Let me say this, as a soldier, it was either kill or be killed. Did I like that feeling, no, but it was part of the job that I knew about when I enlisted voluntarily into the army. I knew that it was wrong to kill another human being, but it was either him or me. The soldiers in the army now know this, and do their duty and do it without hatred, it is just part of the job that once again, we VOLUNTARILY enlisted for.

For you to say that I do not know the horrors of battle and being on the battlefield, is wrong. Unfortunately, I do know those horrors, and hope to never live them again.
