Per the New York Times a North Korean soldier was shot by his own troops as he defected to the South. Would American soldiers do the same?

If it were you what would YOU do? Why?

    Soldiers are taught to act and obey orders in any country.

    So if they were ordered to do so they would? I would be a lousy soldier. I couldn't obey orders like that.  In order to obey such an order you'd have to turn off everything that makes you a human  being and turns you into a robot. No heart no mind no soul. Not my cuppa tea! Thank you for your reply Autumn and Happy Thursday! :
