“Really? How about dying for it?”
Being in the US military isn’t all that dangerous compared to other dangerous jobs. Only 7000 or so depending on who you ask have died in the last 20 years. That includes two wars, one that lasted 15 years.
The chances of trauma and injury is another thing.
Very few die but so many end up mentally or physically diminished.
That’s correct. Truckers and roofers, just to give a few examples, have a much higher chance of dying when doing their job looking at the statistics.
Construction too. I peg my “I’m in danger” meter every time I go up in a scissor lift. Those lights/speakers/fire strobes/WAPs don’t make it 30 feet up to your Walmart ceiling by themselves. Then there’s the residential a-hole who wants a camera at the apex of his roof on the third floor, so gotta break out the creaky old sun-bleached 40-foot extension ladder and fuck around like Clark Griswold…
I can’t believe you guys have been hiding wet-ass pussies in Walmart ceilings this whole time
Yes you do your wars with drones these days
"Would you give an arm? How about a leg?
It cost me an arm and a leg. (No, it wasn’t my arm, obviously…)
