Would you fight for your country?

[orly]

I went to war over dogs in strange clothing, I think I could probably stretch to the defence of the realm

Definitely more suited to guerrilla tactics like the Viet Cong though

Flip it around and ask would you fight for your values, then that becomes a different kettle of fish, but even then it's not straight forward. It's a discussion I have with the other half regularly, as her dad was very anti the party. He was caught on camera throwing stones at the tanks in 68 and it went downhill from there. His values meant no uni, no decent job, no foreign travel, not just for him but the whole family.

I kind of admire him for it, but I didn't have to live through the hardship as a result.

Every man must do his duty.

More or less, this. Fam, blud.

No. If that was true then why aren't the government officials on the front line too ?

I cant even play call of duty without tripping over a mine.

Most of the men in government office are cowards and bullies, sorted.

It'd be great if Prince Harry was your C/O though.

Imagine going out in the lash with him somewhere like the Reeperbahn lol

I would fight for my values, absolutely. The only problem is that my values aren't shared by the Government or those who vote for it.

 

[Professor Toffee]

I'd fight a in a war against Gorillas and Charlton Heston

 

[Encoder]

I'd be that guy at the front of the landing boat on saving private ryan who gets pinged off after about 5 seconds

 

[Huyton Layne]

Fight to save the lives of a bunch of Tories and RS? Swerve.

 

[LEONARD]

I'd like to think I would have been brave enough, re the Spanish civil war, and World War 2.

 

[Gwlacticos]

Can I be the guy in the chopper, hanging out the door, with the massive machine gun, firing indescriminatly at people/animals. Imagine getting paid for that. Dream job, no running about, just back to refuel, rearm, grab a burger. 'Hey asshole, get this bird back in the air'. Ratatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatattatatatatatatatatataatatatata.
