Been 12 years and can't imagine doing 20. I loved it, miss it but mostly hate it. Buried my blue cord with my best friend in Arlington and will never wear any uniform again. Thanks for holding the line for those of us who couldn't be that man.
brother, we lived a tough life man...I came in early 90's when nothing was going on...You you bastards who came in after the war are truly legendary. Don't forget that.
It was a different time. I refuse to regret it and glad I was out before Obama. Those hard motherfuckers who stayed are a different breed. I got exposed to Arlington after the sandbox and doing 4 funerals a day, that shit broke me not the war but the families and constantly seeing young wives with toddlers and sometimes infants. It was a great honor but it was the end for me. Dover morgue robbed my friends body of the cash he had on him and the Army promised to investigate but just sent a check to his mom for the money that was in the autopsy photo with no explanation why his other personal items weren't found.
If there is one highlight to my retirement, it's that DJT signed my Certificate! I make sure to remind my buddies who retired under obama of that fact..lol
Now that is fucking shadow box material. Survived all those shitty presidents just to get that piece of paper from the only CiC worth serving. Not gonna lie just a little jelly lol
I worked for a man like you back in the ‘80s. He wouldn’t even wear black shoes. As someone noted earlier, I can’t understand your pain but I’ve seen it before.
Welcome home, young brother and please get help if you get near the edge.
