Thread: I Don't Think Magnets Support Our Troops

Im active duty and agree with some of what you said but here is my life lessons list, its not ment to be contradictory or anything disrespectful towards you:

1. Being in the military is not my job, its my lifestyle. I chose this way of life and i chose it to be my lifestyle for the rest of my life when i reenlisted. I am aware of the inherit dangers. Do not try to give me freebies or constantly think you owe me something because i serve. The lunch lady serving your childrens food is just as important of a job as what i do. It takes all walks of life/talents to make the world spin. I am not anymore special than the guy that served you your lunch at mcdonalds today.

2. Do not attempt to argue politics with me. Do not degrade me for doing what i am told. If you have a problem with what the president has done, vote for someone else when the time comes.

3. Respect your elders, prior military or not. They have payed their debt to society. If all the seats are full on a bus and someone older gets on the bus, give them your seat. Address all those older than you properly, you will notice when i speak to any of the older people on this forum i address them as Mr and their name, go ahead make fun of it. They have paved the way for what we have now and they deserve this respect.


I could go on forever but i am tired. Again i do not intend any of the above to be disrespectful.
