I have multiple cousins in the military, my father was an officer in the military, so was my grandfather, my great-grandfather and great-great-grandfather, etc.
I recently got placement in the army to be trained as a junior officer (second lieutenant), but I'm not sure if I should do it.
I'm a pacifist and I only believe in self-defense, but would I be fighting in self-defense if I end up getting deployed to a country like Iraq or Afghanistan?
