Sir this may sound idealistic but a sense of duty to country. Even with today’s political climate, I still feel a sense of duty to our country to do what those find unpopular or dangerous. Is this something that you QPs feel most of the time? After various other conflicts that made the military unpopular were there folks who stayed in because they still felt obligated to protect their country?
