To the contary I would rather military members who spoke out whenever they felt the mission wasn't honorable or right.....maybe years from now there may be a president who wants the military to take out his/her political opponents or attack American citizens.
AXEAM, entertain me on this....if soldiers following orders without question or public dispute is sheeplike, how does pledging/being a part of a fraternal organizaton compare? I think the two are one in the same, except one's global impact being much more influential on global affairs.
There are many differences.....besides those you pointed out.
I still say that unless they are revealing something scandalous, they should be quiet and stick to their mission.

I think when the troops are not provided w/ body armour this counts as scandalous...how can the troops succeed if they are not given the proper equipment. Also they were sold a bill of false goods, it's hard to put your life on the line for B.S.
