Soldiers

They disregard their lives as utmost importance. They place honour before pleasure. They make sacrifices.

Their families is never sure of their safety as they can never be sure of their fates.

If they should die, they die for a cause.


But what about the soldiers from Egypt who, under their Pharaoh's command, chased after the Israelites who were led by Moses across the Red Sea? Were they given a choice to or not to run across the ocean that split open? Did they earn their punishment? How many wives became widows on that day? How many children lost their fathers?

What happened to non maleficence on that victorious yet dreadful day?
