To curb an attempted genocide, yes.
Anything else would require an invasion of my home soil.

Well, it would depend on what the war was about and how healthy I was at the time. Something like the defence of the Second Spanish Republic against Franco and the Axis fascists? Definitely. Something like the South Ossetia war? Not a chance.
No, not even if it was to protect my country.
If you wouldnt, then you dont deserve to reap the benefits of living in your country. Get the hell out if you arent willing to defend your home country cowards

I would try and get employed in the forces (Marines, Airforce, Navy, anything!), but only if my country was at risk, not if my country declared war on some country we invade for the resources!
I sometimes wonder if we would even be a country anymore if todays mamby pamby generation were around during Pearl Harbor
Yes.
Though knowing that only country that could attack my country, is, errr, kinda big, mobilisation probably wouldnt even start before we would be occupied.
In a heartbeat.
Mountains rise in the distance stalwart as the stars, fading forever.
Roads ever weaving, soul ever seeking the hunter's mark.
Absolutely, if it was a certainty that the opposing force would invade and slaughter mercilessly unless their actions were intervened. Those who would rather mount their moral high horses have no right to do anything other than smile as they observe their loved ones executed. After all, if there's one adage yet to be seen as untrue, it is the following;
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Only if it was threatening my home country. Like a war in Europe.
The nerve is called the "nerve of awareness". You cant dissect it. Its a current that runs up the center of your spine. I dont know if any of you have sat down, crossed your legs, smoked DMT, and watch what happens... but what happens to me is this big thing goes RRRRRRRRRAAAAAWWW! up my spine and flashes in my brain... well apparently thats whats going to happen if I do this stuff...
If a foreign country threatened the land of England, I would have no choice but to defend it. I couldn't live with myself if I ran away considering the sacrifices of my predecessors in WW1 and WW2. I have nothing but complete respect and admiration for the people that bravely gave their lives for the freedom that is so often abused in my society today. I would be a disgrace of a man if I did not also put my life on the line to protect what my ancestors also protected, even though god knows many people in my country don't deserve it.
