I'm always really impressed with the humility of actual combat vets. I'm so used to running into younger soldiers around here who are itching for trigger time. Wanna kill them some Ay-rabbs.

Knew a guy once who wouldn't even wear his CIB because he didn't care for a daily reminder of what he had to do.

My utmost respect to ya, Kyle -- mcCoolbeans, too.

Amy ... since you and I both agree Kyle is a hero and just for that reason, I think he should be allowed to join you and Mel. Maybe it will help smooth over some of those bad memories he has. If not, it will leave him with a raging hard-on that will make him forget everything else.

Before my kids were born, my girlfriend (who is the mother of my oldest daughter) hit someone on accident while we were driving home from a party. Neither of us were drunk, and we still remember it to this day. She finally went to therapy and it did help, but she still has trouble with it to this day. The thing she says to me is that sometimes we just have to deal with it, because the guy died right in front of both of us. But I would say if you've had an accident that has resulted in someone's death, go to therapy; don't hold it in. It did wonders for my ex and for me.

I've found that attitude to be the difference between flying home second class and flying home air freight.

I don't have any problem wearing my dress blues or flashing the military ID to get myself a discount at the movies... I truly am proud of my service to the country. But the way that I served wasn't, well... glamorous at all.

I signed up for free college, not because I wanted to be heroic. Would I still have signed up if I had turned 18 after the war began? I don't know.

Then, everybody thinks that killing is black and white. Either you're justified or you're not. Not even close. Making a split second decision that decides the fate and future of a grief-stricken twelve year old that just picked up his fallen father's rifle and started shooting... not in the Marine Corps brochure. The recruiter won't tell you that you'll find yourself killing a young woman because one of your squadmates saw a flash of metal and yelled "GUN!"

Then there's the relgious aspect of it, for those that believe in God. Will you be judged on intentions or just on the outcome? If the latter, is every good deed I do from now until my death for naught? The worst part of it, though, is that I don't seem to have the nightmares or the remorse everyone else does. I'm able to shirk it off, to file the bad memories away, and to say that I was just doing my job. Does that make me a bad person, that I don't feel bad for what I've done? When I face my maker, when he asks me if I feel bad about killing a fucking kid, when I have to look him in the eye and say no, that I don't feel anything at all... what then?

This is just soooooo fucked up, but thanks for listening to me piss and moan.

Now back to the porn forum, before I lose my semi-boner!

Or maybe I'll just stop by Amy's house....

Killed someone? not on purpose.. not knowingly at least..

had several die on me when I worked as a medic.. some old.. some past their time..

The sad ones were the SIDS deaths.. had 4 of them during an 8 year stint.

Watched an ER doc crack open a guys chest and start giving him a heart massage to keep him alive.. nice plan, but didn't work out in the end..

Death is not always a pretty or quiet thing..

Your first sentence should be in every ground-pounder's creed.

You ever think maybe you just repress all those memories? Then again, maybe you are just a sociopath -- but who the hell am I to judge?
