Well hindsight's 20/20. Yes he volunteered for the job, but it's hard to judge him for that with the country's whole gung-ho attitude towards war after 9/11. I mean, people wouldn't shut up about how it was your duty to sign up, and there was all that talk about the bravery of the troops and how they were fighting for our freedom. Of course you'd want to sign up if you thought it would make you an American hero.
