Now I just want to say that I do not harbour any real resentment towards this act at all but this is just something I don't really understand about an ideology that is commonly shared that people have. Also keep in mind that if you are reading this and you think I am completely dead wrong, then I am sorry and I don't mean to come across as hateful. I am just uninformed as I don't know really anyone who was in this scenario (outside of 1 guy).

It bothers me when people praise the three men and one woman of the group Voices of Service as heroes and thank them for their work when it seems to be that when people choose to follow a path of going into the military, they are basically choosing to do into these wars and kill people. I understand that these are still "bad people" but there is still the fact that they are basically killing and the overwhelming response that people have to them really confuses me because it seems as though people are celebrating and glorifying people who kill other people and it really irks me. Again, I am not trying to say that the people of VoS are murderers or deserve to go to jail because I understand that they are doing this because they want to keep as regular civilians safe, but I also think that there are better ways of doing this than killing people.

Again maybe I am missing something here, a simple explanation from someone in the comments below who knows more about this subject than I do will suffice, but it's just something that has bothered me about Voices of Service and other acts on AGT prior who served in the military.
