So are we recruiting the right people? High suicide rates? Convincing our youth they can when they have become to soft?
Sorry I ask direct and hard questions???
Quoting: American Cowgirl I have a theory on the suicides. If you wanna hear it? I do wanna hear it! So the war in both Iraq and Afghan were over pretty quick AKA heavy fight. Then the occupations began AKA lighter fighting. Us and those Special operators saw death over and over and over. A lot of the occupation guys didn't. Maybe one battle and an IED. I think it has to do more with frequency of the "trauma". I'll give an example. Only one guy that was in the war that I know has committed suicide. Four... I say again four who didn't go to war, but participated in the occupation have. As for recruiting my Grandpa who was in Korea told me this, "We were older, late twenties, early thirties. You were what 19? And so were all your buddies. Vietnam too." And he was right. Age is an issue. I think they think younger means better control? Sorry you were an "us". I hope all goes well for you :) I did see the post and pray for a successful resolve. Do you think it stems from there? Just curious?
