Why don't you fit in with buddies back home after combat?

Why don't you fit in with buddies back home after combat? While they were watching reality TV shows, reruns on Netflix, playing computer games, checking out Facebook and killing time chilling out,,, this was your life.
But even with that there is also this. Some of your buddies think they should get $15 an hour for working at a fast food place but this is what you did for less than minimum wage, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Now you do understand why you can hang out with them but not feel as if you fit in anymore? You never did and be proud of that.

You wanted to serve your country and risked your life to do it. You were willing to die for your "coworkers" but they have a hard time saying "hi" to theirs.

They complain about a long commute but your commute took you thousands of miles away for months.

They complain about a jerk for a boss but you put your life into the hands of yours.

They complain about working too many hours. Your hours didn't end.

They make excuses for not getting their work done on time, but if you were not doing your job, it meant more would have died.

You earned the title of Veteran and that set you apart from them but with the other 7%!

HERE ARE TWO MORE REASONS TO THINK ABOUT

Army Capt. Will Swenson received the Medal of Honor for his bravery while defending his country. The small act of kindness caught on video shows his real nature, even in the middle of combat. God Bless Will Swenson, and God Bless our troops!
