I’d go to
I’d go to war… relucantly.
I'd go
I’d go. Do my duty.
go to war
I would rather go to the Peace Corps
Restrepo
I’d absolutely try to fight it.
Would I go to war?
I’m old and have trouble hearing. Somehow I think I would be rejected.
Depends
It would depend if it was a war that I believed in or not. It would all depend on the circumstances.
Draft
Go to war
I would go. I don’t
I would go. I don’t believe in the validity of the current wars, but I couldn’t justify not fighting against something like the Nazis. Reluctantly, I’d have to go.
FIGHT OR FLEE!
Honestly I don’t know. It’s a situation I’d have to experience to know what I’d do.
Go to War or Fight It
I would go to war to serve & protect our great country.
