Honor in the military?
Fastpat expressed his views on this very harshly.
Equally, though, the view that being in the military is somehow honorable in and of itself is nonsense.
The issue becomes particularly problematic when you are fighting in the wrong war, and are just the instrument of a corrupt and misguided administration.
I think many here confuse honor with valor. There can be much valor in serving under any circumstances - but honor? The really depends.
