What will you do? (Ethical dilemma question)
#21
RE: What will you do? (Ethical dilemma question)
Not really, at least not to me.  I would suggest, though, that the "complication" refers to ones own feelings of guilt or complicity..and that running off to the best friend would have more to do with that than with the best friends well being. Which isn;t to say that you shouldn't do it, that's a personal call...but it's nice to understand our own motivations.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. 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!
