No, I wouldn't want a family member to die. I meant that I wish I could say that a family member had the honor of dying for their country. Everyone has to go some time- the later the better and with as much honor as possible.

I do have an uncle who served and died in WWII. He led a group of tanks in North Africa, fighting for Italy.
