    bunch of desensitized fuckers in here. That kid probably spends every single day waking up wondering if today is the day his dad will be killed. Yeah, he chose to join the service, so it's his responsibility. But I'm sure he's OK with taking that responsibility on. Because his son is learning what it really means to put others' interests before your own. And about honor - for self, for others, for the bigger picture. Imagine the respect this 6 year old kid has for his father and for fighting for what you believe in. Classless to disrespect that moment, even if the music is a little cheesy.
