Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
...Jesus Christ and the American G.I.
One died for your sins; the other for your freedom.
I understand the occasional malfunction or breakdown of a vehicle and that some missions require stealth as in no vehicles but as a former track and field star (and I say star loosely) with numerous knee operations from all those past years of training that extended running especially with gear that increases your body weight will quickly wear out and damage the cartilage. Years down the road may people such as myself have paid a heavy price for it. I am in my mid 40's and jogging was an exercise I did regularly in my youth. But today I can't do 1/2 a mile without severe pain slowing me down. It sucks getting old.

Growing old is mandatory.
Growing up is optional.
