What IS good, and how do we determine it?

[Thumpalumpacus]

So would you classify every soldier in that has died as a suicide?

That depends ... are they all-powerful soldiers who have seen the future, know their death awaits, and choose to pursue it instead of securing the mission by another, nonfatal means which is within their grasp?

Or are those soldiers, like most dogfaces, following orders come Hell or high water?

This is a shitty analogy that only holds if your god is not a god. Try again, this time with a little effort.
