melthebell Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I'm not happy about them being in danger but it is what they joined the forces to do, when I was sent to the Falkland’s I was over the moon, my parents were a little worried but at 20 it was something I wanted to do, and the possibility of dying didn’t really occur to me or worry me. rather than focus on the soldiers i meant is it better to have one more foe to fight or one less? i know which id rather have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmith Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 your such a lovely person, and ironic considering your views on nasty people such as the terrorists, ever looked in the mirror? Would it not be better for one of the people involved in placing the IED’s to die rather than one of our soldiers trying to defuse it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
