Answer is "The right course of action is to save soldiers’ lives".

A verbal syllogism which means a three-part deductive argument is called an enthymeme originated from Greek. This is used in rhetorical practice. Aristotle was the one who actually proposed this and there are four of the types for enthymeme from which at least two can be found in Aristotle’s work.
