You're not ascetic monks seeking enlightenment; it's paid employment for a role with a few institutional bells and whistles tacked on.

I know someone who was in the defense forces and did come under fire when working abroad under the flag of the UN. I respect the bravery he showed and what he had to endure. I just don't hand that respect out to all en masse due to their job title and chosen field.
