Yes, all behavior is voluntary. But while we insist individual takes responsibilities, how about the government, and how they use our military? I don’t think that national guardsmen are supposed to be used in long-term combat missions overseas…if they really think that the war is so good, they should send their own kids and nieces and nephews (who of course are so privileged that they don’t need military benefit to go to colleges, etc) there, and/or bring back the draft. I’m sure that the draft dodgers’ kids are good draft dodgers too.

Anyway, I’m off topic. I do think that that particular guardman perhaps has overextended himself. But one would think that the country should be more grateful towards those who served and cut them some slack…
