"To the people of the United States of America:
I do not take up arms for the pleasure of taking life.
I take no pleasure in death.
I do so because of you.
I do it because I have the constitution to do so.
Because I feel that your life, your children's lives, and your freedom is worth protecting.
I want you to feel safe.
I want you to be able to walk down the street and not have to worry that you might step on a mine or be shot because you are out after curfew because you need medicine for a sick child. I want you to be able to practice any religion you chose.
I want you to have every freedom you can imagine.
The only thing I ask is that you vote for a leader who will make my job easier.
That I might not be ordered to fight for an unknown cause.
Or in some foreign land where my purpose does not serve your interests.
Do not fear, for I would never attack you.
For you, I will kill.
For you, I will lay down my life.
Please do my sacrifice the honor of ensuring that my life is not sacrificed in vain."
This is why I support the military so much.
