I’m coming up on my 20 year retirement from the army. Spent several years deployed in combat zones. Flown over 150 hours of combat time as a UH-60 pilot.

I’m sick and tired of the constant mandatory suicide prevention briefings, resiliency training, sexual assault prevention, consideration of others training...it’s all bullshit.

Life is tough all over. Grab some sack and drive on. Very happy to be leaving this PC crap sandwich Army. 8 more months...

Thank you for your service.

And for putting up with all that BS.

I bet the last 7 years under Obama as CinC have been brutal.

BINGO!!!

The whole “let’s make up for the abuses of Veterans from Vietnam” generation is what is driving this recent public condition of the “pity parade”...

Sure, let’s appreciate the sacrifices of todays Vets, and show a little pride, instead of the “pity” some feel is the best medicine these days...

Don’t create an environment where the future of our armed forces are going to be coddled and medicated on their discharge because they might have seen something horrible and we need to pity that person...

No one will want to volunteer for service if that is our future...

Or maybe that “is” the desired end result???

All “tin foil hat” kidding aside...

Keep the spinning side up and hang in there. Remember what happens with gethomeitis:)
