The Pentagon on Tuesday said one of the six military members killed over the weekend as the U.S. and Israel struck Iran was a U.S. Army Reserve soldier was from Bellevue, Nebraska.
He was 42, plenty of time to walk away. Also, as someone who grew up in a similar town, I thought “damn I don’t want to be killing people,” and didn’t join the military. Not too hard to do.
More than likely. I live in Bellevue. It’s a mixed bag, being so close to USSTRATCOM. It’s almost 50/50 split. However, with it being so close to Offutt, it’s also a lot of “Support Our Troops” mentality and Pro-Military.
What was he supposed to do?
Jump on a bus?
If you’d been born in his hometown you probably would have considered joining up too.
You aren’t better than him, just luckier.
