A couple of things came to mind reading that.
First, your friend as a member of the National Guard, has no say in where he goes or what he does. So long as his orders do not violate military law or the constitution, he has to obey.
So to call him out for that is unfair.
Second, it is very fair to ask anyone who is critical of x what they are doing to fix/solve/answer x. In otherwords, criticism is easy, solutions are hard, good solutions are even harder. (My classic example of this is parenting; kids criticize parents all the time. Usually they stop when they find out how hard it is to actually do...)

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C.
