Sorry, but that just doesn't work out.
If it did then peace keepers would be war fighters as they are doing something actively, just like fire fighters doing a site check to avoid a fire breaking out later.
Laar.
While I agree with what you say, there are also medics and drivers stationed in Bulford and Tidworth tonight.............perhaps warfighter applies to a time and place rather than a generic coverall term
