The untold terror placed on a man in the very early years of life, if not in enough of itself to cause significant harm inside the head, gives a man a perspective that few will ever have. The invincibility of a man he no longer can claim, he realizes that he is on borrowed time. The moments alone during the storm of bombs, rockets, and machine gun fire that must be endured to survive “is”and always will live deep inside. The rain the sun the insects,snakes and animals that most have never seen are tackled and dealt with each day. The days without a shower or change of clothes as the days go on and on. Fear is in all men, no matter the size or color; death has no preference, a bullet, no care.

The killing is rarely seen as glory would dare, but a necessity to live for another moment on borrowed time. The lesson that are taught and learned that life is precious for all. Never or rarely has hate of the enemy entered into the mind. It is a game of reality played in real-time with no replay or reset.

Men who have endured realize that the loss of freedoms must be regained at any cost; freedom isn’t free. Freedom of speech isn’t freedom of speech if drowned out by the hate of the speaker. When the norms of society have chosen to go against mother nature and humanity itself, the soldiers will once again come to life. GOD BLESS
