When it’s there 24/7 it’s understandable that it kinda becomes routine. I hated firebase security duty and much preferred search and destroy patrol. A dug in firebase was like a million candle power spotlight for moths to swarm over.

I stood a lot of perimeter watch during my tour, and many times I shared a hole with a grunt.
Every one of them said the same thing you did.
