A soldier is a member of the land component of national armed forces; whereas a soldier hired for service in a foreign army would be termed a mercenary. In most languages, "soldier" includes commissioned and non-commissioned officers in national land forces.

Occupational designations

In most armed forces the word soldier has been mostly abandoned, due to the increasing specialization of military occupations that require different areas of knowledge and skill-sets. As a result, "soldier" has been replaced by names which reflect an individual's military occupation specialty Arm, Service or Branch of military employment, their type of unit, or operational employment or technical use such as: trooper, tanker, Commando, dragoon, infantryman, marine, paratrooper, ranger, sniper, engineer, sapper, or a gunner.

where are the us soldiers who oppose the mission in Iraq?
Q. You can't say it's because they can't. If they speek out off duty and in civilian clothes there is nothing the military can do. The only exception are high profile soldiers like Generals. Also, former soldiers have absolutly nothing to worry about if they speek out. It doesn't seem the soldiers who have been to Iraq are agianst the mission. Complaining about the military is not the same as being opposed to the mission. I served when we weren't at war and everyone was constantly complaining (1991-93). I'm still planning my book exposing the army.

What kind of training will soldiers take?
Q. In the movie, a lot of soldiers should take training of boxing. Is boxing training kind of duty for all of soldiers or is it only optional? All of military, Army, Navy, Air Forth, Marines, USCG. Not one of them. Any kind of soldiers must be trained boxing?
Asked by bluesky - Thu Sep 24 20:11:32 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Decades ago, we trained in hand to hand combat. Not boxing. Our objective was to survive the encounter. We trained in fighting with your rifle and bayonet as close encounter weapons. I assume that hand to hand combat is still taught. I hope so anyway. I don't even know that bayonets are still issued, but learning to use your rifle as a close quarters weapon is a good skill and served me well.
