Right on, soldier, here's your gun and I'll just bunt you from this plane without a parachute because you won't die. No. Every bone and organ in your body popped and shattered won't slow you down. I'm not gonna be out there with you because I'm sensible but just know you have my full support. You don't even need armor, do you? Pain doesn't bother you, hell, I don't even know why I handed you a gun, give it back. Go and kill 'em with your bare hands, champ.

Sorry. Holding back that much sarcasm was giving me a migraine.

Here's the facts: People don't fear death. They fear pain. So long as pain is a reality, there will always be cowards who won't want to fight. Everyone wishes for death when they're in pain but NO ONE wishes for pain when their threatened with death.
