Yeah but I could deployed to Germany or South Korea for months at a time. Though I suppose that's taking it rather literally.
I say they're both equal. You gotta know where you come from and who your ancestors were, because that makes half of you. The other half comes from where you are now. I'm proud to Polish because my ancestors were soldiers who fought for Poland, either under the Red Army during the march on Berlin, or under Napoleon during his invasion of Russia. I've got their blood in me, as well as the blood of those who perhaps didn't do anything of that sort, but did other remarkable things or lived through important events.
I'm also proud to serve America because this country has given me the opportunity to meet some of the greatest people I've ever met, and gave me the life that I've been living for most of my time in this world. So I'm serving for all my friends and for all the opportunities I've been given. But I'm equally proud of where I was born and who my ancestors were.

Blood and family aren't the same thing, it's naive to think otherwise.
Regardless of philosophical statements, the blood of your ancestors still gets passed down to you. They might not always act like family, but I'm also talking more about people who are long dead, going back generations, not necessarily focusing much on parents.Genivaria wrote:Grrrr asshole recruiters turning me away...

Are you trying to join the Air Force?

The Greater Siriusian Domain wrote:I selected "white" but that doesn't really tell the whole story. You see, my mother's side of the family is Ikarian Greek and Egyptian, which is actually a common mix since the Greek island of Ikaria would regularly trade with Egypt and there was a lot of intermixing. So technically I have a small percentage of Egyptian Arab in me.
On the other hand, my father's side is Irish and Italian with just a hair of Dutch.
And the there's the fact that I'm adopted and it was a closed adoption, so I have no clue if I'm actually Irish/Italian/Dutch/Greek/Egyptian or something else entirely.

Beyond some limited census material, they don't really factor into the lives of most people.
For example, parts of myfamily tree can be traced back to 13th century Chester, in England.
That's great and all, but what exactly does that contribute to my life? Some interesting trivia for drunken get togethers?
