war readings
after 22 yrs in the United States military and serving with two branches, air force and army, i agree with cetain points and perspectives of both writers. i didsagree with some aspects of there writing as well. in time of national defense, no one should be immune to serving and protecting the country they live in, in times of a politically driven war, i can certainly support a total volunteer military.
I believe your key words were national defense. And I agree. Everyone then needs to be responsible for our country. But in a politically driven war. (not so much)
