Some things change. We're not as young as we were. We have a lot of kids. We've all moved about a million times. There have been Purple Hearts, Bronze Stars, injuries, PTSD diagnoses, VA ratings, marriages, and even sometimes divorces. The war we used to think was exciting and glorious has now dragged on for more than a decade, and we're all sick of it. We now shake our heads and laugh when young soldiers think they're badasses, mostly because we used to be those soldiers.
But then, there are some things that never change, like the fact that we are brothers and sisters, and the fact that we can never be serious for too long. It's definitely NOT all business for us vets! Was good to see you this morning, D. We'll have to do it again real soon now that we're all back on the same side of the country.
