Sorry, it's difficult for me to detect sarcastic humor in posts. Given the subject matter, the use of humor still indicates a decidedly dark perspective, particularly on your value of men's lives. I would hazard to guess if you interviewed any soldier suffering from PTSD , he would have rather been with his family than at war. I find it disheartening that your response to a plea to value men's lives is to complain about how men are bad fathers.
