I’m not gonna lie and say I blame the soldier on this one. If this pussy can’t handle killing people than he is in the wrong business. I don’t care who you are, if you are going to enlist in the military then you should know that you are going to see some terrible shit, so what if your best friend loses his arm, half his face and his arteries shoot blood three feet from his neck onto your boots that already have part of his ear and nose on them. Listen, when you sign up, this is what you get. So suck it up, grunt! Get over it!
I personally don’t know why people that are defending our freedom in Iraq expect to be treated like freaking hero’s when they get home. Every body wants a god damned medal for doing their job. I blame the freaking liberals for making this pussy, well… a pussy!
HORAH SEMPER FI, now those guys, they know how to handle their buddies being decapitated.
