Not in principle it isn't no, you are the one making a strawman argument here. Are you saying that nobody is allowed to have an opinion on the use of military force unless they are in the military? Do your civics come from starship troopers?
Because he's a ****
Where it was? Where you have deployed?
No my point is that it is easy for people to call for war when they are not at risk. Of course, you and everyone else are allowed an opinion, not to say I will agree with it though
Bosnia and Kosovo
Yes but whether I personally do or don't go has zero reflection on whether the point I'm making is valid or not. It's a strawman and attempted ad hominem, you're going after me personally and not my argument.
So more than most you understand the difficulties of peacekeeping operations as well as the risk associated with them. That is why, personally I would give your opinion on deploying troops a different level of consideration than someone that has not.
I'm talking about a draft dodging ****** with an orange face along with a draft dodging ****** from South Africa with a laminated face who are currently destroying the American vet community in such a vindictive way that Putin would blush.
But Generals and colonels have spent time as young officers who have deployed
Haven't seen it yet. Nor heard about it. Interesting to see how it will be in reality, especially with some of my male colleagues... doubt that it will be mandatory though
