Okay imagine you're in a world war.

You could protect 30 civilians by doing something that would require you to lose your life.

Would you do it and why?

I, The Great Takamura-Sama, wouldn't since I could kill so much more enemies than offering myself up for 30 civilians.

Not sure what you mean... if the fight had come to my doorstep, sure I'd like to think I would fight bravely.

But would I join the army? No, I'd probably go so far as to avoid the draft lol. Rather be in jail :P

Nope. That's why I would never willingly go to the army. I'm just not that heroic. Leave that suicidal crap to an anime protagonist.

Why are you implying I'd die? What enemy am I going up against and what weapon do I have?

If I was forced to fight I'd be a sniper or a tank driver.


Er I mean I the great Ikaros type alpha combat class angeloid would go uranus system mode and they wouldn't even know what just hit them.

A quick, simple death that saves others? It's the best offer I can imagine.

Yeah, I'll probably see it coming, I mean it's a war, a big armed conflict, one sees this kind of shit coming from years ahead of it.

If there would be a world war, probably I see myself in the same situation as those characters from the movie grave of the fireflies. Even though I would want to work or take part, I believe that in real life scenario I cannot do anything, but fend off for myself and survive hopefully until the end no matter the costs.

If it were so simple I'd do it too, but OP did not specify that it would be a quick nor painless death :-/

If I know them and me saving them ensures that they would survive the war? Then maybe. But in real life we have no such assurances.

Well that depends on what I was fighting for.
If it was some bullshit war that I had been drafted into were I was sent overseas to die for a bunch of corporate douchebags then I probably wouldn't.
But fighting on my own soil, to defend my own country from a genuine foreign threat, then...yeah I guess, and I don't even consider myself to be even slightly patriotic.
