i've been in the army for over little a year and i have seen so much that is a disgrace to the military itself.
...its not the uniform that we wear... its not the training we have received in basic nor the training we have had in are units...its not taking orders from one in higher command nor is it what the tell you to do and not the time we spent in Iraq. only a few still live the dream of a soldier...i spit on soldiers i cursed them and pulled a gun out on them...not cause they were soldiers but they were never acting like one...today these soldiers take and never give they use people and leave. what makes a soldier now...i use to look down on the military and now since i joined i cant help but look away in disgrace about these so called soldiers cause they only hurt others ...yeah they go to Iraq, Afghanistan..Kuwait, and Korea and many more places but hero's i don't and will never call them cause most take it all for granite when they come back and honesty the soldier out their that are true are just human and they are honest and are hero's but know one can see them cause of the others out their...what makes a soldier is how they live their life... their are people in the military that i would never want to have in a real job outside of the military...most of our soldiers we over look is not in the military but someone who is willing to fight and defend his own and willing to take his life for his loved ones and knows the truth behind right and wrong...cause these new soldiers today...don't know what they mean. as i soldier i see this and i see that the sergeants creed has not been lived up to neither is the soldiers creed today...what the army stands for...they tell us but they do not live by it an the ones that do i commend you for doing the right thing...even the ones not in the military if you do the right thing then you are a soldier...nothing less cause today the military has nothing but scum their is those few tho that i would love to be with in battle...and i hope those men read this cause they know that this is true...none the less...this tells you what a solder is today and i cry i honestly cry to know that their isn't people out their that care to live on the military dream so i give the true militants of our nation a thank you for fighting and being true to why we are here.
