Fuck you with your text book soldier shit
I'm going to take a minute to Apologize and explain a couple of things to you.
The "Tour" is not as important as after. I still have two "Brothers" (I think) still around. Talked to one about a year ago and the other a few years ago.
Every so often, sometimes years apart, I will get a call or make one myself. It is always about "How Ya doin"" and never about "It". Unless of course there is a "Guess who I heard from or ran into" and a funny story that begins with "Remember when he.....?"
And yes there are still some bad feelings about coming home. Protests felt like watching traitors (to me anyway, and I don't think I'm alone in that). Then there was the questions, like "what was it like? Do you regret it? " At times, some would almost seem to want me to be ashamed.
So, even after all these years, I can get set off, by some insignificant comment or opinion. I don't expect you to understand, but sometimes it is beyond control to lash out.
Hey, you did what you did and I did what I did. So, I hope you will accept my apology. We have different views because of differnet life experiences. And, I guess, being honest, It's All Good.
Be Happy My Friend as I am on most days. LOL!! They say it is good to unburden yourself and is a form of healing. Well, I feel better and hope you do as well.
Sorry about the updates to grammer and wording)
