I'm sure that's your experience with your own men. But about 2 weeks ago, I was talking with a young guy who served in Iraq and was about to return to Iraq. He told me he couldn't wait to get back there and was obviously excited about all the good things we are doing there. He said (and I quote), "I love it."
Shouldn't have said "Nobody" you're correct. I just get pretty tired of wives crying in my office. Look, I know what needs to be done. I'm of the opinion that we're using the Guard and Reserves too much for this shit. I was active duty for 8 years. I didn't bitch about deploying because I was in a "tip of the spear" unit. I'm all for expanding the active side. We need to. Just venting a little bit.
