According to bikesnob being forced to wear a helmet is something to rebel against.

No, not him, but I think he would have killed for a shot at it! The poor guy went from the Esmeralda to one of our strike craft and now he captains a tug in Durban harbour. Must find it frustrating.

I would not mind being captain of a tug boat....

A lot of guys left the Navy to drive tugboats.  The pay and perks were just so much better.  It is actually a shame what we pay our armed forces, especially in the more technical parts like the Air Force, Navy, ICT and engineering.

Imagine a country without a military and everyone loved peace...

Imagine how easy it would be to invade that country... ;)

Maybe that is the reason they are now making use of "engineering consultants" from CUBA......

The world only needs one state to believe in military power, and then everyone has to have some form of military.  When you have a number of major powers willing and able to deploy military forces as a "legitimate" means of diplomacy, then well all is lost.

 

Keep in mind, civilians see war as chaotic and destructive, soldiers however see it as the well planned and limited application of force (firepower) to overwhelm an enemy.  Politicians see it as the ultimate quick solution.  I suppose in the case of firepower and explosives better to give than to receive.
