Anyone who gives you a prescriptive fix for your writing, and means it, is a cop.
Labeling every veteran a hero just widens the gap between civilians and soldiers because it creates a mythology that isn’t true, and that most soldiers can’t come close to living up to.
I don’t know where I’d be if I hadn’t gone to war.
I think that’s how humor works at war. Everything else is so horrible that anything you can do that distracts becomes funny, especially if you’re willing to self-deprecate or play piss bottle hot potato
When I left the Marines I wanted to leave it all behind and lose myself in the woods…I had this romantic idea of isolation, that I didn’t deserve the comforts of humanity or some shit.
