Could You Do What They Do

Do you have the courage to give up your life for someone? Do you have the willingness to die for a stranger? Must it be someone you know or can it be anyone? Even for someone close, would you put your life in danger? Is the instinct for your own survival just too much? What would it take for you to lay down your life? Is it the fear of losing out on that human touch Or the guilt for leaving your children, husband, or wife? These are some of the questions that you must ask yourself Before you enlist in the U.S. military. It’s not easy, but your heart can’t be put on a shelf. In battle, your mind isn’t the only thing you should carry. Imagine what people do every single day in war. They give their lives for people they don’t even know. Even if you’re not sure what they are fighting for, Remember that they had the courage to stand up and go.
