Hardly.

What most people are not cognizant of is that every person who joins the military swears an oath to give their life for this country if necessary. The folks who send these people into harms way should keep this in mind.

I am in awe of the Doolittle Raiders as well as the guys who flew the B-17's out of England. They committed to 25 missions, even though in the beginning it was statistically impossible to complete 25 missions. I am also in awe of the F-105 pilots who flew the aircraft I loaded in Vietnam. They flew the missions, even though the R.O.E. was designed to help the enemy shoot them down over Hanoi and Haiphong.
