Did two tours in Iraq with 4th ID as infantry. I feel normal. I have a hard time understanding how so many other people don't. Guess everyone is different.
Everyone is different.
You could shoot my sister in the head and I'd smile.
I could shoot your sister (for convo sake) in the head and you'd be devastated.
Totally get you on that.
I've always been good at thinking that now I'm back, its no big deal. For instance, when I was home I would be driving and see some trash and think "in Iraq that would probably blow up," and keep driving.
When I was stoplossed, I loathed going back outwardly, but there was a small little voice inside that was happy to put boots on ground and start pounding sand.
