This question is absolutely irrelevant and irks me to no end. John McCain served his country and would gladly send thousands of Americans to their deaths to make his political donors rich. And as for NATO, conservative Constitutionalists opposed its creation because they feared the collective defense provision usurped Congress's ability to declare war. They were right. The only question we should ask before going to war is if the physical security of the United States and its citizens are in imminent danger.
So, “I didn’t serve” is the short answer. You know, you could have, they accept volunteers.

I would like to think that you Trumpkins would want to defend all European countries. Despite the immigration you despise they remain majority white by far. Even France. When you look at all the beautiful women in Europe from Spain to Finland I thought you''d want to defend all those white women.

I get your point about that comment, although I didn't hear it. I will say, though, that the Europeans, even the French, fought and suffered their share of casualties.

Since it’s so vital we strap ourselves to Europe and protecting them, where is the line where we’re willing to join a war?
To protect France? Germany? Estonia? Portugal?
Any of them that have joined NATO.
Now, had you asked "are you willing to leave NATO?" you would hae got a more interesting answer.

Did they not teach you how to spell in the Coast Guard Reserves?

It's not who to protect, but rather who is the attacker.

No, Emory. But they do allow edits. But nice to see you denigrate all service members in the Coast Guard Reserve. Congrats talker! I take it you know nothing about the Coast Guard, I doubt I could have got in.
