Did you serve in the military?
Yes, I did.
I don't think your mindset bespeaks the military as a whole, and I don't think your lauding of your own view is borne out by the facts. Feel free to argue otherwise. Be prepared to address the Bonus March, Kent State, and other instances where the American fighting man was fine with turning his barrel on his fellow citizens, and in the former instance, on his brother servicemen.
There will always be isolated incidents but the general mindset is not to turn the barrel on fellow citizens. I've had this conversation many times over the years with many friends in the service and the consensus is that they would turn on the ass hats giving the orders.
