Young people are not thinking about the long-term consequences.
I often feel, that being a soldier is a misunderstood profession. When I ask young people; what´s the soldier´s job? Most will answer - to kill the enemy.
Then I tell them, that modern soldiers are no longer just trained for battlefield combats, but for peace enforcement, peace keeping, rebuilding, stabilization, and highly complex logistics. He´s more like a multitasking civil servant despite the fact that he is wearing a uniform and using different tools to do his job. Of course, the primary function of a soldier still is to fight with weapons and to defend his country and the system he has obliged himself to, and that´s not an easy job at all.
Being exposed to threats for physical and psychological health, soldiers are more vulnerable to mental and physical harms than any non-military profession in modern life. Looking at a soldier´s personal commitment – no matter from which country or in which war zone he has been deployed to – it is all a matter of personal sacrifice, long-term separation from the family, and 24/7 danger for his own life. It´s not all fun and games.
But it´s difficult to get that message through.
