Haven't the 'few' always protected the 'weak' from those that have no moral compass? (notice I didn't say strong! Bullies are a/holes best beaten down!)...
But I hear ya Frosty! Lol...

Correct...occasionally nice when politician's remember that (as a rule they dont; Hell NZ Timor vets have yet to get approval for service pensions, 'it was peacekeeping!')...the average person at least has a think once a year on Anzac day...
I believe this is a true story...I have visited the site (both of them) and can confirm the ground matches the story...The Pentagon offices for all the heads of service of the US military face out over Arlington military cemetery so that none of its commanders EVER forget what they could be sending their people too...
Sadly I dont believe NZ or Aussie politicians/political appointed force commanders (bar Peter Cosgrove or Jerry Mataparae, bloody great bosses) remember this enough and show the respect it deserves; way to easy to move onto plans for the next migration changes or sexual harassment complaints!...

I sleep peaceably because peaceful people grow grapes and make wine for me to consume . What concerns me is every R-sole politician has access to Rough Men for the purpose of keeping them and their mates safe and rich and forcefully taking stuff from other people. The rest of us are just 'a brave sacrifice' or 'collateral damage' in 'the defence of freedom'. A submarine launched nuclear arsenal would help with peaceful sleep and can't be misused by politicians.
