that we want to see in military personnel towards the people they’re supposed to be protecting?
I’m not sure where you’re from, but, at least in Germany it wasn’t “the military” and “the rest of the people that they work for”. Because many people had served, at least until 2005/2006-ish, the idea that we all would stand together in case of conflict and a lot of people in civil life would go back temporarily and do their service at the front was much more common.
As I said, this has been widely replaced by a service expectation. Thrown money in the magic military box, get protection, precisely as you’ve said.
Oh wow, are we sure this is the mentality that we want to see in military personnel towards the people they’re supposed to be protecting? Yikes.
