One thing that was made very clear in my military law lessons was that you were obligated to follow an order. If there was any doubt as to whether that order was legal or not that had to be followed up later, after following the order, or one would be charged for not follow an order.
It is very hard for me to imagine you in the military Magda. Was it mandatory where you live?
In Canada there was no draft and the first I heard of it at age 18 I was in shock. That you coul be actually be forced to go to war. This was during Vietnam. Of course I would have just gone back to Canada had I been a man and my number came up.
I HATE the military because they always lie about why they are sending our boys off to war. During the so called "Cold War" I was never once afraid of the "red scare".
Of course now they give poor boys $20,000 to sign away their lives. It makes me ill.
Jack I have wondered how they do this too, brain washing is very advanced. Also video games were created with war in mind.
