Respect, yes

Peace? Seems counter intuitive to the paras

Interesting path he's taken, seems in touch with who he is and what he wants to do. Good luck to him,

This. Kinda weird that someone who is super religious wants to become a Special Forces operator. He's basically dedicating his life to killing people as efficiently as possible.

I applaud people that dedicate their lives to protecting our freedom. I don't try to bring up a negative viewpoint and call them a killer as if they're similar to a murderer in jail or some lowly piece of society. That seems to be an extremely naive and an awfully tiny viewpoint that would insult many heroes in our country's storied history. I'm very thankful for their sacrifice and am aware that if soldiers didn't risk their life as bullets flew by their heads, our society wouldn't be the same as it is today. I can only imagine the sorrow of barely seeing my family for four years while I'm enlisted. I appreciate the military.

Easy there, cowgirl... Did I say it was a bad thing? I wish him the best of luck. I'm just trying to point out that being a bad ### mofo isn't really in line with spreading God's word.

According to police in Fort Walton Beach, Florida ... 23-year-old Coffee was pulled over for speeding ... but cops quickly discovered that Glen's vehicle -- a 2008 Cadillac -- had no registration or insurance. Because the vehicle was deemed "unlawful to be on the roadway," cops called for the Cadillac to be towed ... but first, they ran a quick search -- and found a "black 380 SIG Sauer automatic pistol."

According to the police report, obtained by TMZ ... "The pistol was recovered with the hammer 'cocked' to the rear. It was located in the center console ... readily accessible to Coffee."

They don't use they safety either

Sounds like somebody wasted a first round rookie pick in here and is salty.

3 years ago, Columbo. That motivated him to take his life in a different direction.

nnnnnnnot reallly.

This isn't the late 1700's.... the military has done far more to subvert freedom than to provide or defend it over the last 50 years.

Very few of the boys that I know that've enlisted hardly did it with the bolded ideal in mind either. I think your viewpoint is naive and romantasizing.

A direction where that behavior is accepted and encouraged.

Too bad really, he might've been our best chance at a real-life Last Boy Scout

name calling, typing curses, and insulting our military....

To make a leap that he is joining special forces to spread God's word while he is amidst a battle is unreasonable.

You speak of your "boys" fondly yet have an insulting tone.

You mention 1700s and last 50 years as if there isn't 250 or so and several wars in between.

Stories like this are not for your agenda or anyone else's. A young man is joining the military's special forces. He is not responsible for policy nor for Vietnam, Korea, Lebanon, Kuwait, Hawitha Dam or anything else you want to pretend he is.

You have not sacrificed for our freedom, which is fine and your prerogative. Please don't forget it's people like Coffee that make it possible for you to have a choice whether to serve or not. Why you can't just wish a young man well is beyond me
