Although I can respect the guy for going still and defending the country, I also have to wonder is he is dumb as a stump risking his life with a million dollars sitting at home.

If you think this guy is dumb, can't wait to hear your thoughts on Prince Harry

For some people to call Prince Harry, Tillman, and this guys stupid is understandable to me. Eight years ago before i joined i would have said the same shit. I actually feel now that Tillman and harry was a little crazy for what they did. I respect it, just dont understand it.

Now this guy is totally understandable. If he is already in and been on tours with this guys I understand why he just dont deep. I know all the military movies talk about the brotherhood stuff and it seems like movie stuff but that aint the case. When you live, eat and fight with the guys they really become your brothers. For him not to just want to roll out on them is very understandable.

Also dcspride is not an ass hole or bad guy, just think he is tried of seeing useless threads and dont see why this story is really news. This is a good story but is it really news.

So to you, honor, patriotism and duty have a price?

What if it were $400,000? $250,000? $100,000? A slightly banged up but still running Dodge Aries K?

I think dominicdg hit it right on: if this guy hadn't gone on 2 tours already, he wouldn't be going back

How about the couple in Georgia that hit the Mega Millions for $270 million after only buying 2 tickets at $1 each.
