minus-square@givesomefuckslinkEnglish7•1 year agoHave they been to war yet tho? Have they seen their squadmates dead bodies? I was Navy and on a marine transport ship. The ones who hadn’t been deployed yet were gunho and annoying as shit. Like young puppies. The ones who had actually seen shit, were a lot more rational and disillusioned. Don’t underestimate the brainwashing of the military, especially for exclusive stuff, it takes a while to get that out of your head after training.
