17-22 is a really defining time in somebody's life
You we're defining yourself at 19 behind a machine gun. I was defining myself drunk and high at parties in college. Thanks for your service, it's shit like this makes me realize I need to get my shit together.
Edit: To all the people talking down on the military. War sucks, no one is gonna argue that. But what is this guy supposed to do? Dissent in the middle of a battle? Discuss global politics and the justice of the war when people are shooting at him? Fuck no. Hes there to follow orders to the end, that's how every nation ever won wars in the past. The fact that there are people who will die for my country is enough to garner my respect.
