Military officials also hope that the AWOL soldiers' experiences in Tent City will be close to the living accommodations of soldiers in Iraq.

PC wussies...

During Korean war, when the AWOL rate went through the roof, the military adopted a new policy.

Any man AWOL was put in irons, transported to Travis AFB in CA and flown in irons with MPs direct to Korea as replacements in the front lines. The AWOL dropped to next to nothing. In Korea these slackers were thrown into the worst of conditions.

I witnessed many a MATS flight of them in irons bound for Korea.

A good reminder that we are the property of the state.

At the time and of personal consideration, we were unhappy to be risking our lives and these people were taking the cowards way out.

Right or wrong was not an issue, rather personal survival.

These people would wait until the day before their ship was to depart CA, desert and come back after the ship left. For this they were given 6 months in the brig and dishonorably discharged. There were hundreds of them that took that route.

After direct flights began, desertion was very rare.

Otherwise that kind of servitude would really suck.

servitude??

Far worse than that. It comes down to this, you take your chance with "our" enemy, or we shoot you, your choice.

Contrary to beliefs of some that were not there, I take it personal when a man adopts cowardice as a defense and others have to take their place.

Some of these people with big mouths are just that, all mouth, all talk.

Recall our HERO Ike had Slovik shot. Would the big mouths face that???

Our freedom? Doesn't that strike you as a bit ironic?

Ironic???

Not at all.

The man at the bottom NEVER has a choice. Wrapping oneself in a higher moral veil cloaks only one thing, his own willingness to let others sacrifice, not me, however I will gladly partake of any benefits that may follow.

The Revolutionary war is a perfect example of the personal selfishness of men. Thirty per cent of Americans fought and won freedom for this country. That thirty per cent did the suffering, bleeding and dying while the moralists sat safely at home.

As soon as the war was settled the shirkers were out in force, we were with you all the time.

But if I were drafted to fight for the oil companies in Iraq by the oil president to fight a war for Israel and oil, I wouldn't go. I'd do everything in my power to keep my friends and family from going, too. It's an immoral war, and a man ought to have the right to choose what's moral and what's not, just like a man ought to have the right to choose whether he has the personal courage or strength to go and fight. That's what it means to be a free man.

Hear, hear. Well said. And if the price of ethical free choice is imprisonment, so be it. Better that than enslavement to serve corrupt and greedy men's/foreign nation's self-serving agendas.
