just bc you volunteered and you knew the risks doesn't make you EXPENDABLE, not to mention last i checked, you don't just quit from the military like you'd quit from mcdonalds.

neither do i, but good for you for being able to understand that everyone deserves to have an opinion, whether or not it's unpatriotic or not.
