Thread: Super Hornets and Diesel Subs...

The Australian Defense Force is a team.
While there is always inter-service rivalry, we all do different jobs.
The Armys Job is to seize and Hold ground, something the Airforce and Navy can't do.
The Army can't deliver ship killing missiles, The Airforce can't patrol a town.
If the public can't support the people the Men and Women who put themselves in harms way for our sake then we come from a pretty shallow society.

Hmmm... I support the men and women that put themselves in harm's way for our sake, just as I recognise the last time that the men and women have truly put themselves in harms way "for our sake" has been long before I was born.

Ever since WWII, our men and women have been put in harm's way for BS agendas that I don't feel serve Australia's interests IMHO. And that's not their fault, but that of the politicians who make the decisions to send them places 'we' shouldn't be.

putting yourself in harms way for someone else's sake is a good cause.
