They don’t brag about their combat experience. They wouldn’t talk to you about it. In fact they’d be loathe to claim advantage online or socially or otherwise. They are (were) fine men.

I don't brag. I discuss combat and the subsequent effects. I will always speak out about it and I refuse to hide in the background like some of you would prefer. I have had enough of the lies and smokescreens that non-servers put out about us and our service and our sacrifices.

The only advantage combat service gives if it can be called that is knowing what's real and what's false about this world we occupy.

If those acquaintances of yours were combat veterans, I don't doubt that they were fine men.

It's people like you that I have doubts about.
