Not if there's peace. Besides, airman? A civilian can be drafted and be ordered to go fight at the front as well, and that's in many countries much more likely to happen than this happening to an airman.

Again, the difference is not mil/civ, but 'mil at war'/'civ away from war'


Why is it so hard to think logically about this, instead of blurring lines all the time and then drawing an allegedly unblurred conclusion?
