Unfortunately, the military...

Isn't immune to tragic accidents either...
A Canadian soldier died Saturday after tumbling into a deep well during a night foot patrol in the Zhari district, a restive area southwest of Kandahar.

Capt. Jonathan Sutherland Snyder, a member of the First Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry based in Edmonton, Alta., is the second officer to die while on duty in the war-ravaged country in less than a week.
He will be remembered.

So, we're ok with having an army, maybe even sending them places... just as long as nobody gets hurt. Got it.

And let's keep the French guys at the back, just in case things get ugly. It's not like anybody's gonna miss a kid from Toronto or St. John.
See, it's war... people die.

That's why it's not called "Circle of Friends."
