I have always considered myself kind of a bridge. I can help those people who do not understand the military, who don't understand that these are the guys next door who four days before they were in a war zone were in a minivan taking their kids to school.
Most soldiers who die in combat aren't thinking about their country or their family or God — they're thinking about the other soldiers in their unit. They die for each other, and that is the most powerful form of loyalty that humans are capable of.
