Lessons Learned
This is what works:
Avoid service in a war that you diligently promote. You'll be labled strong, courageous, the tough guys tough guy, etc. Conservatives and ditto heads will love you.
This is what does not work:
Perform service in a war that you oppose. Even though you may be feeling some kind of sense of duty and self-sacrifice, you'll be labeled a coward and a freak.
Do not perform service but work diligently to oppose the war. Bad idea. Even though you may be feeling some kind of sense of duty and self-sacrifice, you'll be labeled a coward, traitor, and have your sexual preferences challenged.
