That 'punch above their weight' line is used quite often in military circles as pep talk for rallying the troops to take on yet another foreign entanglement.

I think it is more accurate to say we do not have a tradition of military aggression....

Yes, but I don't know why they had to go all the way to far eastern Russa in 1919 on a post WW1 sight seeing tour when we had the same sort of scenery here.

Quote:
Our soldiers care about the Afghans, the kids going to school, the crops surviving so families can have a livelihood and are not forced to join the Taliban....

All the wholesome care that teleprompt television and official script can provide to them.

Quote:
Personally, I think we have a much prouder and more valued and honourable military tradition....

Prouder, valued, and honourable for whom?
