You assume much. I spent 12 years as a 13B10/20 I’ve also been on both sides of the gun as a civilian and I’m pleased to report that the 3 DGUs I’ve been involved in resulted in no shots fired. I also have several years experience in the medical field as an EMT, a Medical Admin Specialist and an RMA. Being involved W/ death is not a new experience for me but, again, it’s not an experience I seek out.
It’s been my experience that people that talk the most about having been knee deep in the poop, haven’t been As a matter of fact one of the baddest assed individuals I ever met was the janitor in my elementary school he fought in North Africa, he fought in Italy and he fought in Europe and he talked, in very general terms, about some of the place he’d seen and about taking some Germans prisoner but when I asked him if he’d ever killed anyone all he said was ‘oh, let’s not talk about that” and changed the subject.
When I run into someone on the web who’s boasting of his/her exploits I usually assume it’s false.
