You're thanking people for being fry cooks, accountants, and ac repairmen. Then...that sliver of others..you're thanking for being killers. All twelve of us actively avoided putting ourselves into dangerous situations. That's sort of the metric for occupational competence, lol. We're soldiers, not warriors. A working collective, not individual heroes.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
