Are people in the military just pawns for politicans and the special interest groups?

[Eddy Current]

Aren't we all just pawns in one way or another? Not a single one of us is the chess master so let's not pretend you're above it. People join the military for many reasons,generally positive, there's alot to gain from joining the military if you're willing to apply yourself.

That's true. Some pawns are used to go fight other pawns, then some pawns stay put to build roads, mine coal, type numbers into spreadsheets, etc.

I wish everyone would find out the truth about Bill Cooper.
Was the last great American patriot. He was an intelligence officer in the Navy during the war on Vietnam.

They showed him a less doctored version of a certain film. He went AWOL after learning the nature of things. He came back and for the last 15-20 years of his life showed that film to people in towns and cities across the USA.
