Every soldier I’ve ever known, complains. The food, the CO, the enemy, the quarters...it’s an art form:)

This guy though, is whining- not complaining. BIG difference.

To: SE Mom

You got that right. I enlisted in the Navy in 76, got out in 80, and reenlisted in 82, 88, 90, and 93. And there were times when I did not want to be someplace even though I volunteered and it wasn’t really dangerous. Near the end of my career, I was getting bored with going to sea and on different cruises. basically because I had been there and done that. And yes, a bitchin’ soldier/sailor/Marine/airman is a happy one - right? 8-)
