A coward dies a thousand deaths.
A soldier dies but once.
Being a soldier is not a job, it’s a way of life. Their life starts when they sign up, and ends when they’ve taken their last breath. They strap on armor, clean their weapons, live in tents, mount up in armored vehicles to make sure that their countrymen are safe and sound, without giving a second thought about their own safety. And for that, they deserve immense respect and should be heaped with pride and gratitude.
And here are the quotes on the lives of soldiers that are full of reverence:

Because to be a soldier requires that special gene, that extra something, that enables a person to jump on one on one combat, something that is unimaginable to most of us.
