i mean fighting muslim against another muslims country is a big sin but not listenin to their leaders is a big sin too
i mean if theres a muslim american was born there raised there and happened to be a soldier got asked to fight in iraq ?
ive never thought of this before......unless they are there for help not fight

i think that if the muslim soldier knows in his/her heart that bush is lying shouldnt go to there but if they have a doubt then they must follow their leaders
thats the same problem with bin ladin and his followers they didnt follow their leaders called them cheaters against the islamic nation

WWI we saved Europe from Germany.
WWII we saved Europe and the World from Nazism and The Japanese Empire.
Korean war we saved South Korea from the Communists.
Cold War we saved the world from the Soviet Union.

Through these wars the people supported the country.
Why in the Vietnam war was there so much protest against saving South Vietnam from Communist? We were not against saving South Korea. why Vietnam? And if "everyone" was against it why did it take 15 years to end it?? We were liberating Vietnam and now were liberating Iraq, why is that bad?

Serious question = Serious answer.

Thank you.

My friend is applying for a Secret Service position, however he/she has vision acuity of 20/80. SS only accepts 20/60 or better. I am trying to find reasonable accomodations that would allow he/she to be considered. He/She served in the military and used glasses the entire time. No one complained then. What should he/she do?

I'm a premedical undergraduate student right now in college looking into medical school. I want to do the HPSP Army or Navy scholarship program, and I was wondering about the wartime deployment of physicians. After med school, residency, and hpsp program training, would they allow me to: (for Army) deploy into the field as a field surgeon or medic? (or for Navy) deploy as a Corpsman embedded into a Marine Battalion? Or would either of the two allow me to volunteer for this type of deployment?

If so, would I have to attend additional training for this type of deployment aside from the OBLC/training from HPSP, med school, and residency?

Thanks,
Thomas.

I am going to start leading the morning PT in my battalion and wondered if anyone had a good beginner's workout that will last 20-25 minutes. I don't want anything real tough; these guys haven't worked out in a long time!

My husband just retired from the military after 20 years. I really would like for him to slow down a bit and live more of a "normal" lifestyle and not go 1000 miles an hour and pack so much in. I know I shouldn't complain, but after 9 years of military life, deployments, trips to Iraq etc I want more time with him and him to do less for others and more for "Us". Is there any books out there to help with career military people to decompress and adjust to civilian life?

Is there anyone in the military that use to be extremely homophopic? Is there any service member who has gone through tough combat situations knowing that the person guarding their back is gay? But suddenly your views changed when they found out that one of their battle buddies is gay. If so, what is your new view on gays serving openly in the military? How do you look at yourself during the times when you were homophobic?

What are some internal causes that brought about the Six-Day War? I am not as much concerned about external factors than I am internal ones.

I want to join the US Air Force. Should I enlist now and start my career or should I go to college, take ROTC, and become an officer. I am a Junior in High School so I have a little bit of time to think about it. I have been offered a ROTC scholarship and I am wondering if I should go to college and later join the USAF as an officer or enlist now.

A young man I know signed on to the Navy a few months ago but is not scheduled to go in until after the 1st of the year. He has had too much time to sit around and think about it and now he is having regrets. He is thinking of just not showing up. I am concerned about him and the consequences he may face. If I could present the consequences to him as fact maybe his thinking about not showing up will turn around. If anyone can give me some advise on how to talk with this young man and present the facts to him it would be appreciated.

Earlier today I posted a question and got some very helpful answers about the differences between Enlisted men and Officers. It seems as though enlisting in the military first so that I can get the lay of land a little bit, learn the mechanics of the armed forces, and also be able to relate to those who do the majority of the grunt work would better prepare me to then become a better officer. However I don't know if I can enlist as a private and proceed on towards NCO after I have graduated from college, and then become an officer. I would appreciate any knowledge on this.

My reason for asking is that I would prefer to finish my four-year degree before joining the miltary so that thngs are a little less complicated.

I would appreciate any knowledge on this subject.
