redneck proof of us soldiers treating civilians badly can be seen in both the US and UK scandals regarding human rights abuses in iraq.

but staying on topic. what do i give to these people for supposedly sving my freedom? my taxes which pay for their lving quarters, food, holidays, trips abroad, training, health care, their child's school, the gun in their hand and the plane flying over head, the clubs and sports facilities, water, electricity, gas and a very very nice pension scheme.

above is also why people join the army not to become a hero or save lives. most will never see active duty in iraq. many will spent a year or two in cyprus or malta and never have a bullet go past their ear. they perform thier job as ordered in the same way i do everyday.
