And I have no issue with that. 
There will always be people that are willing to sacrifice for what they believe in to be good and true.
Every time I think of those Canadian men (and women) that selflessly volunteered their lives during D-Day so that I can remain in a free country, even though I wasn't even born, still blows me away.
I would hope that there are still men and women to this day that would do the same, should the calling come.
(To some extent, those that work for the Police and Fire Departments still are...)
People can call it patriotism if they wish, and they'd be partically correct. I'd call it just doing what's right.
