One of the unfortunate aspects of military service is that the service member swears to obey the orders of those appointed above them. They don't get to pick and choose who or where they will fight.
Unfortunately you’re correct. That’s exactly why I would never encourage anyone to join the service, especially now. IMHO fighting to defend the Constitution is not the same as being sent to fight in Ukraine or Israel. No way would my son or daughter, if I had one, be sent to fight along side the IDF(IOF) or the Neo Nazis in Ukraine, if I had anything to say about it. That’s not the same as fighting to defend this country if we were actually invaded.
