For the last three days Ive been talking to all of my current and former military brothers in arms that did time in AFG. The only words I can think of to articulate the universal emotions are something close to mild shock, betrayal, and remorse. I dont know if there is a single word for it that exists in our current lexicon.
These folks lost friends, have PTSD for the horrific shit they had to survive, sacrificed by missing significant life events, missed the opportunity to say goodbye to loved ones while deployed, and much much more.
Q said “military is the only way”. When the shock wears off and turns to anger ... i think Pandoras Box is gonna bust wide open. Millions of betrayed and hyper-pissed off Combat Veterans are gonna pour out. Something one told me is seared into my brain: “fuk it, I should have died back there anyway. I have been living in pain and have nightmares, and for what now”. If this happens, Jan 6th is gonna look like a garden party. That WAS NOT an insurrection. This will be. If it happens, u will see the largest, most well armed standing army in the history of man kind manifest overnight. There is no ‘security’ in existence that will save them. No wall that wont be quickly breached. No where they can run, no where they can hide. No bunker will protect them.
This might be the military Q was referring to.
Just my own thoughts from what I have observed.
EXACTLY
Had this exact conversation with a fellow vet last night. He is truly tinfoil hat and thinks NATO is gonna try and take over here. I asked him if he forgot all of the shit he learned as a soldier. Of course not. Same goes for all those Armor guys (tankers), and Infantry, and Aviators, and Medics, and Artillery. I can still upload a ready-box and fire a 25mm. It's been a minute, but It'll come back to me. You don't forget that type of shit ... not ever.
We all remember where the motor pools and fuel points are. I'm pretty sure if some fucking NATO fags were here in the US in force somewhere, we'd be able to commandeer some Apaches and Abrahms and Bradleys pretty quick. For those who think guys wouldn't do it ... go find a tanker and ask him if he would pass on the chance to put rounds on target just one last time. Watch his entire demeanor change in an instant.
