I went on r/thepack and saw someone posting “I just want positivity to help me, no upvotes”
And then this transpired
So long story short I get the guys number and text him, he’s an Air Force vet who just lost his friend Matthew in the marines
So I talked with him for a bit and consoled him
I’d like you guys to keep him in your thoughts or maybe pray for the guys family
oi @Fitzydog
fitzy was af too
Shit. I was just about to ask a dumb question for no reason and you have to drop heavy shit
But I still wanna ask this dumb question
What a crazy world we live in, where an Air Force vet in Arizona talks to a Jewish kid in Connecticut after connecting via a meme forum
Don’t
Wait a bit man
Whatever. It was stupid anyhow
God I feel bad for him
Losing a close friend is the worst
He's in my thoughts tonight. Give him my best.
I can relate... <:pepe_sad:378719408345841664>
I thanked him for his service too
Gotta do that
Unless you’re Nathan Phillips John Kerry or Richard Blumenthal
My friend from basic committed suicide, because he was told he has autism like 2 years after wards at his first duty station.
He was just an awkward guy raised by a single mom...
Aw duck man
Fuck
AUTOCORRECT NOT NOW
Sucks. I wanted to join the Air Force since I was in kindergarten and my mother tried to dissuade me all my life.
When I was 16 or 17 I asked my psychiatrist, a retired AF Colonel. My mom said they woukdn't take me and I wanted to prove her wrong. The doctor told me they won't. I cried for days. Was literally my dream. Mother says she felt so heartbroken, Id never been so sad. I even held out hope and took the ASVAB, scored really high, and all branches were calling me day and night. One came to the house. Then all said no.
So it feels so weird knowing your buddy got killed in the Navy for no goddamn reason, when you wanted (and still want really) to do something similar.
wtf
was this during obama's mothball?
Yeah.
I'm 26 now. Past my prime.
what was the reason they gave?
I had wanted to go to the Air Force Academy and become an officer
Medication, previous diagnoses.
darn
I tried to quit my meds and it fucked me up bad
They don't want autistic kids anyway so. I still regret it, probably always will. I feel like I was *supposed to.*
Wanted to carry on the family history that way. Wanted to be part of something more important than myself. Now I look for jobs at McDonalds and get no responses despite going there twice.
