Owe him what?

Edit: The "not anymore true than if someone with a non-militant profession said it" is kind of out of place. That sounds equivalent to "super retarded", as you're saying his claim has 0 merit.

y'know, i grew up by a military base (ft. bragg) and never heard this kind of an opinion from the G.I.'s. It's a volounteer military, your friend gets paid VERY well for his skill sets, and he's been paid in full.

Maybe "owe him" respect... that would be a little fair to say.

I certainly appreciate all of the people in the armed forces, I'm not sure I owe anyone though... everyone who's ever sucked out KK against my AA I'd say "owes me" too, but I don't really expect any donations. Was your roommate pissed off or something when he said this? And has he actually been in combat?
