To be fair, soldiers can't just up and leave without the risk of a court martial.
If you sign up, you do whatever the government tells you to do.
I don't buy the idea that there are soldiers who will refuse to fire upon their fellow civilians. If they do, they're in contempt and their military career is basically over.

Think for yourselves BEFORE you join the military.
In other words, don't feel bullied or pressured to join just because.
If you feel that it is your destiny, then by all means do so.

There is only one person responsible for this, OBAMA. Ask him. The buck stops there.

1.8 million troops vs 313,000,000 million civilians, That I would love to see

A unarmed nation is a doomed nation.
