Posted this morning at Electric Politics, a podcast interview on the subject of military training for moral decision-making, with former SEAL, Dick Couch. Dick had a distinguished career as a Vietnam era SEAL, including leading a team that rescued some POWs from the North Vietnamese -- one of the very few such attempts that succeeded. Subsequently, he's authored numerous books, both fiction and non- fiction, has taught at the Naval Academy, and has lectured widely.
Take this one as a snapshot of current moral thinking among military officers. How representative it is, I don't know.
