Its 'conscientious objector day' or some shit.
What do you make of that? On the one hand I think refusing to take part in perceived immoral warfare or atrocities and having the bottle to go to prison and become a paraiah for your convictions is perhaps admirable - but on the other, in some circumstances I think if you refuse to fight then you're a fucking coward. You joined the army to do a job and you do what you're fucking told, it's not a democracy and you have to follow orders or the whole thing's fucked.

I would proudly straddle both definitions.
I am a complete coward plus I have no desire to fight in any kind of war.
I have no qualms about becoming a pariah for either of these convictions.

If you voluntarily join the armed forces, then refuse to fight,
you're either incredibly naive or fucking stupid.
If you're conscripted it's a bit different, though. Plus you have to look at it in the context of the time, e.g. in WWI killing several thousand of your own men in order to advance a scant few yards wasn't considered unusual, these days once the first body bag arrives back in the USA all hell breaks loose. Hence the increasing number of drones being used.
