Just that it’s incredibly prevalent

2018-11-08 16:42:07 UTC  

And the negative public perception certainly doesn’t help

2018-11-08 16:42:10 UTC  

Yeah. I can only speak anecdotally myself.

2018-11-08 16:42:32 UTC  

Just a general trend I've noticed.

2018-11-08 16:42:37 UTC  

In my shop, I had an old customer who was a vet from both Korea and Vietnam

2018-11-08 16:43:00 UTC  

He was... let’s say he had this sparkle in his eye when I told him I was a vet too

2018-11-08 16:43:16 UTC  

Like he hasn’t spoken to anyone about his experiences in _years_

2018-11-08 16:43:32 UTC  

And the painful thing is like...

2018-11-08 16:43:46 UTC  

He’d be so animated talking about him and his buddies and shit

2018-11-08 16:43:59 UTC  

And as soon as some other customer walks in he automatically becomes dead silent

2018-11-08 16:44:10 UTC  

I love hanging with the old vets.

2018-11-08 16:44:34 UTC  

And the worst part?

2018-11-08 16:44:41 UTC  

Guy was a combat medic

2018-11-08 16:44:52 UTC  

He didn’t even actively take part in shooting people

2018-11-08 16:45:00 UTC  

Was having a beer with a bloke who was an observer during the Malayan emergency.

2018-11-08 16:45:11 UTC  

And _even then_ he’s still made to feel ashamed of being a vet

2018-11-08 16:45:19 UTC  

Victoria’s fucked up man

2018-11-08 16:45:34 UTC  

Yeah its definitely a trash state.

2018-11-08 16:45:46 UTC  

Probably just build a wall around it.

2018-11-08 16:45:50 UTC  

wow. he'd be at home here. we have a LOT of marines here, let alone military in general

2018-11-08 16:46:02 UTC  

he'd be welcomed and be among many friends

2018-11-08 16:46:05 UTC

2018-11-08 16:46:21 UTC

2018-11-08 16:47:37 UTC

2018-11-08 16:48:13 UTC

2018-11-08 16:48:43 UTC  

Man one of my dreams is to go on one of those super carriers one day

2018-11-08 16:48:55 UTC  

Maybe the Ronald Reagan just because

2018-11-08 16:48:59 UTC  

_Oh mate_

2018-11-08 16:49:02 UTC
