And logger, or fishermen, or oil rig workers, or drivers, who app work far more dangerous jobs, don't "sacrifice"

I sleep well at night because of a roofer who risked his life to fix a hole, not because the US spend an obscene amount of money on its military.

P.S the military isn't that dangerous. The largest killer is suicide, then transport accidents, then other accidents. Truckers are in a far more risky job, because of the danger of driving, and because of the sedantary lifestyle. Next time you see a trucker at the gas station remember to applaud him and thank him for his service.
