I think it's an innate willingness to sacrifice your own self for the good of somebody else or to society.

When you take psychological tests, you know, we're probably categorized.

I mean, it's a certain psychological profile that wants to serve.

So thankfully, there are those people that want to do that, just like we're thankful that people want to be doctors or clergymen.

I mean, everybody has a certain path.

And if you give them the MMPI psychological assessment tool test,

they're probably gonna be very similar in all those different career fields.

through honor and glory and the elevation of those that died in the past.

I don't think anybody goes into the military, I would hope not anyway, but a normal person goes in the military wanting to serve for their country and are willing to die for that, but they don't want to die.

I didn't want to die for my country when I went to Iraq.

I was an 18-year-old in the Air Force back in the Carter administration.

Wow.

Iranian hostage situation went off.

We had 52 Americans that were held for over a year in Tehran.

Well, I'm a young 18-year-old law enforcement specialist, military working dog handler at Ellsworth Air Force Base, South Dakota, and I get called in the office one day and said, you're now restricted to base.

The phone had better not ring twice before you answer it.

We're possibly going to war, so you're going to be taken off law enforcement duties, assigned to the kennel, and we're going to start doing combat operations.

Yep.

And one of the things we were told, go down to the CBPO, which is the base personnel office, and fill out a will at 18 years old.

I mean, you don't even think about death when you're 18 years old.
