I let my parents talk me out of joining the military right after high school. I regretted that decision for a long time. Before Biden, I told my dad that my biggest regret was not signing up. Now I am beyond grateful I didn't. I feel fucking horrible for true Veteran Patriots that have to witness their sacrifice, and the sacrifice of their loved ones come to what it is now.

I have combat vet friends. Many are aware. They're just more stoic about it.
