While I was never in combat, I spent 2 hard years in Germany during the cold war, 86-88

Since I was a gun bunny on a how, part of combat arms, It was 45 days out, 30-45 in, etc, etc. Training in the field alot of times is tough / hard shit. Not like my bros who were in saudi probably, but pretty tough.

45 days, 1 shower per week, 30 below zero, it sucks

I recommend the service to any 18-22 yr old person. great way to grow up, travel, and work your ass off.
I did ROTC for a while in college, but the instructor we had was like a marine drill sargent with a serious no smiles attitude and most of the group found this guy so uninviting to listen to the attrition rate was high.
