If ever the opportunity should present itself to perform one's (service memeber) primary duty, a thoughtless action to say the least because of the training; the fighting continues (mentally) long after the trigger was squeezed.

I'm proud to say that I have graduated now to just 1 restless night a year (I got off easy)... My prayers go out to all service members around the world.
