My cousin was doing a law degree. For whatever reason she decided to pivot to physiotherapy which is great. But then out of nowhere she joined the army as a medic. I just cannot understand why, for the life of me.

If she gets vaporised I'll not be too troubled. She had life on a platter, and could have used her skills to help people who needed it, but decided that the war crime machine was her calling.

Not exactly a secret that we’re deploying troops and they’re gonna be there a while

I'm just worried for the troops. The fuckers sending them are ultimately responsible, but the troops should have been warmed not to expose themselves to danger like this.

Operational Security. I.e. securing information related to deployments, plans, attacks, strikes, etc etc etc.

Controlling access to any information that could be used to gain intelligence on troop/ship movements, locations, timing, etc.

For an older example, here's a cartoon short about one Private Snafu.
