During my 20-year naval career, I was prepared to give my life for my country. I won't detail all the circumstances where my life was in jeopardy, but suffice it to say it wasn't an uncommon experience.
Inspired by Jean-Christophe Mounicq, I've come to the conclusion that I'm willing to sacrifice the lives of some innocents to expunge terrorists from the face of the Earth. I used to be squeamish about it, but Jean-Cristophe has taught me, that just as I was willing to sacrifice myself for the betterment of the world, I'm willing to sacrifice others to free the world of the scourge of terrorism.
I make no apologies.
