Tell them you want to be a scout in the Army or a forward observer in the Marines. If you're a pro-war American of the right age, then shut up and put your life where your mouth is. Or you could just be a 5 time deferment like Dick Cheney and just send other people off to die for your oil. What are you waiting for? Go on! We're waiting...

Yeah, I didn't think so.
Well since I am a disable vet myself - spent 12 years in the military in the Field Artillery served in combat in Desert Storm - and support the war. Am I a Chickenhawk.

Then my bother has done even more then I. A combat tour during Desert Storm, two peacekeeping tours to Bosina and Kosovo, and is currently in Kuwait training the Kuwaiti Military - about to return to the states to be assigned to a division about to go to Iraq - also supports the war - is he a Chickenhawk also.

You said something in another thread - but it seems here your not abiding by your own advice.
