Should we leave it up to the soldiers to come home or to stay? How about bringing them home little at a time?

This is for a school term paper.
Answer
The military is built on discipline and order. While all members of the military have thier opinions of why they are deployed or whether they should be or not is great. However, not everyone in the military understands the 'big picture' when it comes to national security. It is easy for us to say bring them all home now or why were we ever there in the first place? The point of the matter is, the members of all branches of the military swore an oath to follow the lawful orders of those appointed over them, to include the President of the United States.
Asking a Soldier, Marine, Airman or Sailor if they want to come home, I am sure most would say yes. However, if you were to ask to them at what cost to their family and friends and most would reply that the sacrifice they are making is more than enough to pay that cost. The military is a volunteer organization and has been for many years (last draftees were during Vietnam era). So the men and women in the armed forces are there because they volunteered at one point to serve their country.
Right, wrong or indifferent, our military is deployed because our leaders (the same people we vote for) have decided this is in our nations best interest. As for a phasing out of troops until those deployed are home, will probably be one of the main topics of debate during the up coming national elections. Just the sheer volume of logistics that would be required in bring our service men and women home would be enormous. So a pack your bag, we are leaving tomorrow situation would never happen.
We all have a say in what happens to our nation, our military and our families, it is called freedom of speech and the right to vote. Voice your opinion by voting for the candidate that stands for what you believe it. If all of the eligible Americans voted this way, the politicians would be more likely to listen to the public.
Good luck with your paper!
