Hang in there Brother i feel? your pain……….
Is the song implying that people who? don’t support the war in turn don’t support the troops?
yeeeeees!!!!!!!!?
what you said in the video beginning was true.? there is a MAJOR stigma associated with getting mental help.
i am a former member of the US Army and was forced into medical retirement because of getting help with my mental problems. last i heard, people in my old unit were avoiding getting help because of what happened to me, they didn’t want to get forced out or retired as well.
and frankly it pisses me off when some loud mouth punk still living in his mom and dads basement says that my friends died for oil or corprate greed thats not? why we fight its cause the man to our left and right is our brother and we fight because the leadership y’all elected put us in a place were we had to kill or be killed.
My younger cousin did kill himself after losing his foot in afganistian.
my friend jim is medicaly retired from army took him two years to get his va benifits
I searched for? vbieds for 4 years I know why I did it to save the lives of my countrymen I used to tell new guys that we were a speed bump to slow down or stop an attack before it got close enough to take out a vital bulding full of americans.
THIS FOR THE RAPPER THATCALLS HIMSELF SOIJA BOY, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN TO BE ABLE TO TALK SHIT ABOUT THE TROOPS THAT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO OPEN YOUR STUPID MOUTH. GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY GREAT COUNTRY YOU? PIECE OF SHIT!!!!!
Never got PTSD, guess its something that depends on the individual. A? couple in my batallion went home with it, its really not pretty and it royally fucked up their families.
This? shits real so pay attention.
Great song! “how easily when we stand, you? run” Remember the next person who plans to burn our flag, make sure you’re wrapped around it first. SEMPER FI! -Cpl. Prado USMC
I know? one guy who returned home the same day as my friend shot himself, the minute he stepped off the base he killed himself. We need to support the troops.
“you don’t have to agree but atleast? support us”
Exactly!
the army is changing alot, its getting alot better with time, look, when he come home after deployment he will? be the happiest person alive for about three months, most people dont show symptoms till 8-12 months after you get back…he will be fine im sure, take it from a soilder and a younger brother to 2 older soilders, deployments dont last as long as you think 🙂
wow i dint? knew that! do you know why he got kick out??
best song ever?
