A soldier or a policeman?

Yep. The soldiering is a tradition in my family and the policeman comes from a navet of wanting to put violent predators in jail. It came from actually seeing murdered persons. I learned it is not at all so simple. I was young. I was idealistic. I would have been one of those persons that volunteered to go fight in Vietnam if I had been born twenty years earlier. Do you understand? The Danish philosopher Sren Kierkegaard put it best: “At one time my only wish was to be a police official. It seemed to me to be an occupation for my sleepless intriguing mind. I had the idea that there, among criminals, were people to fight: clever, vigorous, crafty fellows. Later I realized that it was good that I did not become one, for most police cases involve misery and wretchedness – not crimes and scandals.
