In the end, my story, in Iraq and afterward, is about more than just killing people or even fighting for my country. It's about being a man. And it's about love as well as hate.
If you hate the war, that’s fine. But you should still support the troops. They don’t get to pick where they’re deployed. They just gave the American people a blank check for anything up to and including the value of their lives, and the least everyone else can do is be thankful. Buy them dinner. Mow their yard. Bake them cookies.
Every time I kill someone, he can't plant an I.E.D. You don't think twice about it.
None of my problems come from the people I've killed.
I have a master chief that always said, punch and run.
I am a much better father and husband than I ever was a sniper.
The joke was that President Bush only declared war when Starbucks was hit. You can mess with the U.N. all you want, but when you start interfering with the right to get caffeinated, someone has to pay.
Great way to fight a war - be prepared to defend yourself for winning.
It's funny --- sometimes the strongest individuals feel the worst when events are out of their control, and they can't really be there for the people they love. I've felt it myself.
What wounded veteran's don't need is sympathy. THey need to be treated like the men they are: equals, heroes, and people who still have tremendous value for society.
I'm just trying to be the me that I am and not all of this other crap. I just want to be the family man, and if somehow I can make the money to get my ranch and get the hell away from everybody else, that would be awesome.
Maybe war isn’t really fun, but I certainly was enjoying it.
Im not a redneck, Im from Texas.
If you see anyone from about sixteen to sixty-five and they're male, shoot 'em. Kill every male you see.
