RJA #2b: Research Topic

I plan to elaborate on an "Ethical introspection on War: is it necessary?" This is an issue that has followed man since the beginning and still presents itself in the modern day world; due to this, there are several instances in which War can be referenced and analyzed. It can be inferred that like many things War has multiple aspects to it that people can either agree or disagree upon. Primarily the fact that War ends lives; some find this to be necessary, but others find it unethical no matter the reason for it.

My father has served in the Air Force branch of military, thus I lived in a military environment for the better half of my life. From this life experience I can offer many things about military life from a "military brat's" perspective. Other than that I am aware of the Wars that America has undergone, and for the most part, why were were drawn into them.

War seems to be a very experienced based concept. If you have not lived it, then you can not understand it. I wish to explore that which I am or am not missing from it. I want to know about the soldiers perspective and all that they had to go through to protect this cause that War ordered them to protect, and ultimately why.
