Shocked that the legion took over the Roman republican government. Couldn't see that coming..

It was something you should have done when you were young rather than make excuses.
Doc, don't worry about it. We don't need TC or BroGrump or Kath............................... We only need their kids.

We'll have plenty of war for them. It may seem like a long while off, but consider that in about 3 weeks there will be kids born after 9-11 that are eligible to serve in the Legions.
If it came to my son serving or me, I would gladly take his place.

I may be broken... the difference is my son has opportunities that I never had growing up, and I want him to take them.

I would gladly be on the front line to keep my son and wife safe.

That is what most people don’t understand, I am willing to sacrifice everything for my son, and I was willing to do so before he was born.

I can’t say the same could be said for others here.

It's a good and decent sentiment. But it doesn't work that way............. We don't want your broken down body, we want your young fresh kid, with new legs and young energy. We will take him and put him in the Legions.

You’ll take my kids for your meat grinder over my cold dead body.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Good luck there, he won’t be taking orders for long if he goes in. He is way too smart to be a grunt.

And no, that’s not my opinion. He’s already been tested due to my issues and he’s off the charts smart.

We don't care. We don't care that you think you, or your wife or your kid are special. We need numbers.
By the time your kid is of age is about the same time we should be fully understanding that the volunteer military has failed because of continuous war.

He will be ours.

Good luck... you’ll want bodies, he will be leading those bodies.

See, now that's a good attitude. Embrace it. Oh, and BTW. This isn't an 18th C Napoleanic Army. We need smart guys in the infantry, we don't need smart guys in logistics in the rear.

A leader leads, a commanding officer is an asshole.

Commanders are usually relatively disengaged. They have NCOs to do the asshole thing for them.

That look of subtle disappointment on the commander's continence means you are in for a tough time with the NCOs later.
