Would You Die For Your Country if We Go To War With Russia and/or China?

This is all hypothetical of course. Just wondering how many posters would actually serve their country if North Korea or Syria sparks an armed conflict between the super powers.
I would definitely enlist and die proudly for my country. There is no higher honor.

I'm almost 45. I doubt I'd be much use for the military.
But to answer, it would depend on the circumstances causing the war.

If things were to go that far, I would still be eligible to be recalled to active duty, and would do my duty, serving in yet another war zone.

Most of us might die, willingly or not.

Not if I can avoid it.
But I would do all I could to make sure some poor son of a bitch dies for his country.

I would love to kick some ruskie and Chinese arse. I actually am planning on going in in late July.

I already served 20 years but would put the uni back on if need be.....I'm 57 so we would be in bad shape if I was needed
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

If the Russkies or chinee come over here and start trouble...yea I'll kill em.
More of a July 4th thread than a Easter weekend thread though. JS

I'd rather not go, but if drafted, I would go and serve my country to the best of my ability.
Posted on 4/14/17 at 10:24 am to Burt Reynolds
I would make them die for their country.

So you are a fair weather patriot? Gotchya.

You warmongering alarmists are either insane or just not giving a single second of thought to the sensationalist drivel you're being spoonfed... There will be no war between the US, Russia, China in any combination. All signs point to a loose, if not official, coalition being developed
to bring an end to these tin pot regimes in Syria and NK.
Iran is by far a bigger threat to the US than Syria and North Korea combined. Funny how no one talks about that these days.

It would completely depend upon the circumstances that got us into said war.

If it was to defend our county, our families and our way of life I would without hesitation.
If it is about false narratives, money and power the answer is NO.

Hell no. Just because our government thinks its a good idea, it doesn't mean that I do. I value my life more than any ideology.

Pretty sure a lot of the warhawks are strictly Keyboard Rambos and nothing more.
