The military, by and large, serve as the extension of the state's will beyond its confines, further up on the hierarchy than the police: they're composed of the air force, army, navy, marines, and coast guard, each with their own special set of skills suited to their roles; as such, in times of war, their services, especially in the past, have made them a requirement in defending their nation.

Such is the case for America, a once proud nation, reduced to a shadow of its former self, if not already done so since the 19th century; even with its ideals becoming more universal than ever before, it, along with many other nations have struggled to escape its history: concupiscence, gluttony, avarice, wrath, heresy, violence, deception, and treachery – the products of humanity.

Under no circumstances the wars that have been waged where this cumulation of evil was poured into the earth like water onto grass itself; even into the future of it all, the past itself refuses to die, much less disappear as the people themselves in the present are a product therein: one man in particular stands out and about with so much to say but little time left on the clock, if at that.
