After interviewing 3 soldiers of different ranks including a first year, sixth year and 15th year I have come to the conclusion that the question, “Should we be in Iraq?” will not be answered. I received the same answer from all of them and that was that they do what they are told to do and if they started to doubt the reasons for or against it then they would lose their spirit about it. They do however feel they are doing a good thing whether it is “right”, or “wrong”.

“Who defines right or wrong?” This was an answer I received after asking how they felt. She also stated that every day that goes by and less people are afraid of another attack she feels like she is doing the “right” thing.

These soldiers do not choose to go over there, they are told by our government and they do this because that is what they are suppose to do.
