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
