really?the troops who were squashing slave rebellions, killing indians and pointing at iraqi penisis, all under orders, gave me my life and freedom? i beleive they delayed it and we have it inspite of them not because of them.

Please don't be naive in thinking that only such examples of troops committed atrocities. Just because things aren't as well documented as say Vietnam or Iraq doesn't make such soldiers as the revolutionaries saints.
