Would you encourage your children to join the military? I have two sons who both grew up on base while I was on active duty. Now that I'm retired and they're almost finished with high school. I asked them what they want to do after graduating and they're not sure yet. One of them is thinking about college but he also says that "I'm tired of going back to school". The other one asked me if enlisting in the army like what I did is a good idea, while he figures out his future career options later. Honestly, I'm not sure what advice to give him about this.

Question! I just moved(transferred) to another team of my company and received new title, graphic & creative services. I was a senior graphic designer at the previous team. What do you think about my new title? I know that title is not a big thing but why I feel like my title is downgraded here… Good thing is my jobs here at my current team are what I really wanted to do. This is amazing.

Do you ever regret pursuing the life of a soldier?

If you had to choose between the army and the navy, which one would you choose and why?

My advice: Concentrate on yourself above anything else, follow orders but also know how those orders affect you, serve your country but never forget you are serving yourself first. The objective is not to die honorably but to survive dutifully. What else would you add?

Does anyone else feel like they have become too utilitarian and objective?

Am I the only one who fears a third world war is among us? I've been studying the circumstances that led to WW1 and WW2, and let me tell you, we're not as far as they were. I hope the better judgment of people avoids such a catastrophic outcome.

The feeling of avoiding mines buried on the gorund is one I carry at all times, and I remember the fear and the anxiety at every step. I still feel like this today, like every decision I make will lead to disaster.

The best thing about being stationed abroad was that I got to meet new cultures I never thought I’d see.

The death of my best friend in combat will forever haunt me, no matter how hard I want to accept it and let it go. I've been remembering every day since I came back. It's so hard to deal with this on my own.
