True enough. A lot of the people here in Saint-Jean don't appreciate the CF. Plus, a lot of my friends asked me why I joined. All I said was that I wanted to serve my country. There were several other questions after that, such as: 'Why not serve in some other way?' and whatnot. I couldn't really explain why when they asked that one.

It's unfortunate how some civilians view the Military, but there's really nothing that we can do aside from either take it, or try to explain what we do. However, since a lot of people are very closed-minded, the latter choice proves very difficult.
