Sure there are "kids" out there that get off on killing. They exist in every society, some more than others.
True professionals, such as SEALs, usually have a level of self-control and intelligence way beyond the average ground-pounder for a reason. Their typical engagements with the enemy are not always filtered through electronic or long-range interfaces. These traits also allow them to see the ramifications of their own actions, trust me, they are not unthinking "killing machines". They do their duty, and don't talk about it.
