Do you think American soldiers are put on too high of a pedestal

RE: Do you think American soldiers are put on too high of a pedestal
Agent Oranges deleterious effects were the result of wilful neglect.

The dioxin concentrations that cause hideous health issues were easy to detect and remove, but neither Dow Chemical or the US Military cared to pay the additional costs. They also argued that any additional purification would delay shipments.

So US soldiers health and Vietnamese health was sacrificed on the altar of expediency, a sacrifice that was worthless considering we lost the war.

Is this is what is meant for "doing what needs to be done"?
