Almost every interview of soldiers, especially those haven't get sent to a suicide mission, feels confident and positive.
The reality is, you dont have a chance to feel negative – because when you do get yourself in a "shit hits the fan" situation, high chance is, you are dead.

… because those planes get shot there, never returned.
