20. "RE: So they shall not be forgotten." In response to In response to 17
Besides--I would not think they are talking about being "dead" in the literal sense--but rather in a spiritual or political sense. And that is a tough one again... I don't think I could ever truly understand why a person would enlist in the military(or the police force for that matter).Those institutions represent ideals which make me shudder. But--the military recruitment campaign deliberately targets those in lower socio-economic positions--offering a way out of their predicament. A deal with the devil as far as I'm concerned--but I'd certainly hate to blame the victim.
