Why non serving people are not necessarily Chicken Hawks

A few weeks back Mitt Romney got asked a question about why his five sons are not serving in the military.  At the time his answer, at least as proclaimed by the media, was not particularly positive.  Though his central point - that our military is all volunteer, and that his sons are responsible for their own choices. 

But what about others, like me, who could have volunteered for the military after 9-11, support the war in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and did not.  Does that makes us chickenhawks?
