Good evening Marines,

I understand this is a very controversial and touchy topic. I'd like to apologize to any Marine offended by this thread.

But have any of you Marines, either personally, or having seen another comrade, lost faith in your leaders during a mission?

How often do you honestly, in the back of your mind, begin to conceptualize some form of doubt about what you are doing?

How do you, or ones you've served with deal with this doubt?

Again, Marines, I'm not posting to offend or flame, only to learn more about the psychology of a combat deployed Marine, I'm currently hoping to land an Infantry contract, and if I do end up having some reservations, I want to know what I can do to deal with it.

Thank you in advance.
