Apparently... we do "stand on guard"

"I find myself in a unique position in comparison to most of my fellow army commanders across NATO," Lt.-Gen. Leslie said. "I have more volunteers every tour than I have positions."

"To come to Afghanistan is a competitive process."

"We've taken a stance since Day 1 at Local 444 that we would not support the war in Afghanistan," local president Rick Laporte told CBC News. "We think we're a peacekeeping force more than a combative force."
