Know anyone in the military? What are they like?
I was thinking about this earlier tonight. I know a good number of people who either are serving or have served in the military: my best friend is at West Point, a close family friend was in the Marines seemingly forever, and one of my fraternity brothers is an eight year veteran of the SEALs, to name the most prominent.
And without exception, every one of these people is one of the most wonderful people I have ever met--honest, true, and reliable. It could be coincidence, sure, but it seems to me that these people are better for their service. Did the military teach them something everyone else is lacking? What is it? I dont know but I sure as hell like it. Not only that, but I have tremendous respect for what they did.
Anyways, what are yall's experiences with folks who have served? Who do you know who has served?
