In my opinion, the soldier of today and of years past both deserve recognition and support for their efforts. As undercover said, they sacrifice much in terms of family and such, for minimal pay. Why do they sacrifice so much time with their families?
I like to believe they do it because they believe so strongly in community and country, that they feel serving the broader Canadian public is important enough to spend less time with family. To me, that's very admirable.
