    Totally and I get you completely. But when we are talking about money and you have lived in Korea yourself know you could save half of that paycheck and over 2 years, that is 24,000 dollars, plus severance, plus pension refund (if the school paid it), you have the choice in all the jobs you have done over 30 years or so to save that 10%, to invest it. You have worked hard, you have got an education, but you lacked nurturing like I did. However, much trauma you still think you have, you have always had it in you to get out there and get a job and the savings potential has always been there for you. You spent years overseas where you don't even pay rent most of the time. Again, loads of little perks. Trauma has not stopped you working. We knuckle down.
    Both you little pussies have no idea what trauma is. Try a few explosions and see people blown up around you. Worry about mines and snipers. Kick in some doors not knowing what’s on the other side. Take a few rounds when you are tree top flying. I’ll show you trauma. Take off your ballerina shoes and go sell crazy somewhere else I’m full up here
    That is a whole nother universe that is something that nobody can imagine except for you and people who like you did that. That is something that we have only seen about in the movies and heard about from veterans like you. There is no way we could imagine that. And when you guys come back from that there is no way anybody can tell you what kind of a life you should live or what kind of a job you can do or can't do or are capable of doing or emotionally wanting even to do after that. That is unimaginable stuff compared to what we are talking about here is in a totally different universe

    My next door neighbour did ten years in the Legion. He will know your detachment and probably your Legion number. What was your Legion number?

    You shouldn't make Walter Mitty statements, as you might get found out!
