The phone calls and emails part makes me really like your approach to your business.

Good for you.

I'm certainly not going to attempt to answer for him, and he can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he's stated why a few times already -- he wanted an adventure. HIS adventure. And he thought he would try and do something that he feels was the right thing to do in the process.

By remaining enlisted he'd have very little control over where he was or who he was fighting. <-- my opinion

Nothing wrong with wanting to do something on your own terms.

Lol yeah I noticed it while looking through his pics. I was like wtf?

EDIT: LOL! Then I found this [NSFW] --

Well, I'm not. And I think the article + his own words indicated clearly enough the "terms of his separation".

I see what you're saying, and I don't entirely disagree, but I don't see shooting the enemy (which I hope we can all agree ISIL is) as a US Marine or as a civilian vastly different personally.

This is correct.

No better a battle than one of your choosing.
