Modern Soldiers


Imagine a war being fought without the risk of human casualty. The face of U.S. warfare is changing. It is changing because instead of putting human soldiers in harms way, robotic drones are being used as substitutes. Technology, once again is changing the world as we know it. One of the most important characteristics about the drones is they can be controlled long distance from anywhere in the world. They are much more advanced than the average everyday radio-controlled vehicle.


I like the idea that we have this technology at our disposal. This technology in the future will allow us to save lives. One day we will no longer have to send our brothers, sisters, mothers, or fathers to battle. For many Americans this would be more comfortable than having risk family members and friends to fight in present and future wars. Many troops have been saved or relieved of serious personal injury because of drones that can detect bombs. Throughout history men and now women have been placed on battlelines and died to fight and support their countries. The future of drone warriors has been met with some opposition. The drones have come with some problems because they are new. As time progresses this technology will only improve and other countries will sign on to help save lives and assist their military.
