My buddy’s nephew dropped out of the army...is he a coward?

My buddy and I were sitting around watching the Cowboys preseason game last weekend and he told me his nephew dropped out of the army because he was afraid to go to war. Slightly taken aback, I wondered if this was a respectable move on his part or if avoiding military service is cowardly and unpatriotic.
What says the OT? Is being a draft dodger the biggest coward move you can make or is It kind of badass?

Better than being captured and giving info on that LSU fans base

He didn't draft dodge, he said frick this.
No honor in it, but better now than when SHTF and he locks up.

Quitter. Too much soy. Zou needs to give the boy a talking to.

Yes he is in fact a pussy. Has no sense of honor. He signed his name and backed out so he is every bit of a quitter.

I should know this because my parents were in the military but how do you “drop out”? Go AWOL?
I thought once you signed on the dotted line you belong to them for X years. He knew what the possibilities were when he enlisted.. he should sack up and see it through.
And to answer your question, it’s a lot of things.. badass is not one of them.

Definitely not badass. More of a WTF why does he think we're going to war now?
But I wouldn't blame someone for draft dodging the Vietnam or some other pointless war.

Didn’t realize we were having one of those
He volunteered, then changed his mind. I see no problem with it. Guys don’t want to serve with a pussy anyways

frick no.
Do you want to go to war, or serve in Iraq or Afghanistan, who have done nothing to us?
But, he prob should have thought about that before signing up, so he's most likely very, very dumb.

It comes down to if he believed in his purpose in the armed forces.
It's not for everyone and better now than later.

Coward.

I just don’t understand why he joined in the first place then

You can’t get drafted into a volunteer army.

I agree with this, personally.
I think people who avoid war are pussies. Especially like in the 60’s and your name was called. Any true patriot would die for their country imho
