Hey,

I feel for you. Ex Air Cavalry here and you need to learn that civilians never get it, not ever.

You are right, you were trained to do one thing and do it well and then your told to do another. That's the world today, tomorrow you may need to just rock and roll......................

My world was easier, the military was just that, the military. Do your best for yourself everyday and you'll be fine.

Americans are great at running their mouths and not following up, why does it disappoint you or surprise you? You sound young, you must have known in your heart that you would not always be supported, now use your head to understand it as well.

American soldiers are the backbone of world freedom and liberty, never forget that and never expect a pat on the back for doing it.

For what it's worth my personal opinion is that the "war" should have been handled in the most aggressive manner possible with all the ugliness it entails but that's why I'm not running the show, I'm much too violent for today's politically sensitive world.

Keep your head up and watch your back, try not to think too long and hard about things and you'll be fine. Drop a private message if you just want to talk to an ex military guy.

"If you run, you'll just die tired"

"Hooah soldier"
