not a healthy environment for him

he was grumpy

Alex Jones is a fucking national treasure though you are right

I was getting grumpy too tbf

Some retarded shit going on in the various discords

I hope he found greener pastures full of his own kind, grumpy old vet weebs

A disturbingly large demographic now that I think about it

Bro, I fucking hate veterans

Okay, that's maybe too big of a bait even for me.

@FireRising I almost went full retard like you there for a minute

lol

I hate American veterans, post GWOT

There, I think that's a good distinction

God damn are GWOT vets the biggest assholes on Earth with their borderline POG infantry escapades

GWOT

wut

Global War on Terrorism

ohhhh

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_on_Terror

Weird that they say this shit is early surge

When I think GWOT, I think of the older fucks from the first boogaloo

In 1984, the Reagan administration, which had significantly expanded the CIA-run program of funding the Jihadi militants in Afghanistan, employed the term "war against terrorism" to pass legislation aimed at countering terrorist groups in the wake of the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing that killed 241 U.S. and 58 French peacekeepers.[73] In 2017, U.S. Vice President Mike Pence called the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing "the opening salvo in a war that we have waged ever since—the global war on terror."[74]

Ah that's why

So yeah, GWOT isn't a good term. But, basically, the first fuckwits from the 80s and 90s. So, Kuwait.

I'm sure some soldiers would say the same about fellow vietnam vets when they came back

Gulf War

That's the term I was missing

I have no issue with Nam vets.

Nam vets were in some real shit

Gulf war guys never really fired a shot in anger

It was all pilots.

That's why the Vietnam comparision doesn't work

Fuck fighting asians, fuck fighting in asian countries, fuck fighting in jungles

Post Korea war (armistice technically,) DMZ guards were in more danger than Gulf War vets

lol

Hey, my Uncle was a Korea vet. He also guarded the DMZ post armistice. They had dudes get nabbed and drug over the border every other month for the first few years.

Norks didn't play games

Still don't, tbh

Look up the tree incident if you don't believe me.

Anyways, one of the best veterans I know is a Gulf War vet, actually two em.

One is my history/philosophy professor, a Chief Petty Officer. He got combat in the Gulf War, and jokes he didn't get a purple heart on his ship cause he knew how to duck. The other was my veteran officer at my college, he was NCIS and went undercover to investigate and root out terror groups in ME during the Gulf War and I think he did time in Iraq too.
