Thanks for watching, I've enjoyed doing these talks with Syrmor. And, I appreciated all the thoughtful comments people gave me two years ago when that video initially came out, it helped me put into perspective some things that I might've struggled with longer without that kind of mass input. I'll be honest, that video was a spur of the moment thing that I reached out to Syrmor to do without really thinking to hard on, but I can't begin to tell you how much good it has done for me by getting something that was previously eating me up out into the world for better or worse. I feel bad, as not everyone gets the opportunity or platform to do the same, but it's important sometimes to get other people's perspective on things we often want to hide the most (whether that be in ways like I did through the internet or probably way more healthy with someone you trust), and that's one of my biggest take aways from this whole thing. I'll leave it there, and say that I hope you have a great day.

[@jack_rabbit]

i hope things are getting better, and i hope you can return to some sort of sense of "normal" in your sleep and stuff. take care of yourself. seriously, that's priority 1 man.

[@frankzajac3158]

Well said bro. Nobody said life was going to be easy, and we are the dumbass' who chose to make it harder by joining the military. I met guys who did 20 years, made rank and really never did a damn thing in their career. I knew a guy who was blow up on his second day in Iraq, fresh out of boot. You just never know. The important thing, is to just never quit, never stop. Do what's good for YOU, and always remember, someone out there is having a much worse time than you, so actually, it's never that bad. Glad this helped you out and made you change your way of thinking. And for the record, I formally remove you from being a POG.

[@BallisticDamages]

Listening to you talk about your issues after coming home has helped me face my own issues, thanks my guy, all the best too you

[@alzeheimersgaming]

Hey man, thanks for this. I loved the bit at the end where you said “If you want help you have to buy it with your rights”. I wanted to just put it out there that if you feel that way you aren’t alone. It felt so incredibly validating hearing you say that, and I’m sure other people feel the same way and have a hard time putting words to the thought. Thank you for your words.

(but again, Cant remember the story Fully) And he set himself on fire because of some contradiction in a promise or smth, Real fuckin' wild.

There's the field jacket liner, and the poncho liner. The field jacket liner has sleeves. The poncho liner is just a large square. Both made of Woobium(tm) which is Really Warm Shit(tm).

The Drill Sergeants gave us MREs to eat at our leisure (which was unheard of because we were usually rushed to eat) and someone went and tattled on us behind our backs, saying we lied and we actually DID eat dinner already, so the Drill Sergeants took us outside and made us do roll-lefts and roll-rights in the tire pit until we vomited up the MRE we just ate. There was the time I got sick and went to see the doctor, and the doctor thought I might have spinal meningitis, performed a spinal tap/lumbar puncture on me in the hospital, and my spinal fluid kept leaking and I had to navigate my way from a hospital bed to the emergency room to get anyone to help me.

Had to get out, but two years later, I forced my way into the Army national guard for NY (yes, I am aware how garbage that is) and the closest thing I could get to combat was MP (31B). I volunteered to go over, but my unit was called up anyway. it was the most surreal life experience, going to JAG and making out my Will in case I died, then stepping off the plane and that damn desert sand immediately crawling up my ass. I saw the very worst of what the human race is capable of, because I participated in it, a LOT. I started to lose myself and became the monster I was there to stop.

There was an advert for the british army on the radio the other day - likely based on the recent earthquake situation in turkey to be topical. It was all about how you could make really important decisions to rescue people if you joined the army. Only the best people could make those "hard decisions" and "save lives". Always the same from these adverts - helping negotiate to use some guy's water well peacefully by taking off your sunglasses and seeming approachable. Learning how to make complex machines work under pressure to "be the best" or going out and rescuing people. No mention of fighting, bad conditions, having to kill some other person in any way whatsoever. Apparently out military is some amazing, peaceful charity organization that occasionally does some extreme sports. I knew someone who served in the Yugoslavia conflict as a peacekeeper. He saw things so awful i wont discuss them here so i dont end up triggering anyone. They never mention any of that in the recruitment ads. I dont know of any other job where they recruit you without mentioning your primary duties. Its no wonder veterans come out and feel alienated - even the public face of their profession is shamefully hidden.

People want to know what's going on from people actually on the ground, not the media. We want to hear what is happening overseas, straight from the soldiers.

He would always sleep better when I was next to him. I worry about him now. I noticed he had some sadistic tendencies at odd times. I know he saw some horrific stuff. He was so sweet and gentle, but suddenly, would be getting off to almost drowning me at the beach. He would go into the bathroom for long periods of time too. Never figured that out.

[@bigfebreeze_xyt3082]

It’s not really a creepy thing, you do it every night so your body doesn’t act out what it sees in dreams just sometimes if you aren’t relaxed when u drift off into sleep you can end up halfway conscious and it’s a weird state to be in which makes u somewhat delirious and scared if you have no clue what’s going on, you can even turn sleep paralysis into lucid dreams with practice, if you wanna know how there’s plenty of tutorials here on yt

I can personally attest to the level of crap that the VA is. I got out of the Navy a year ago, and I chose not to submit any claims at all for VA disability benefits just so I wouldn't ever have to deal with them. Sure, I won't get a free check in the mail every month, but I believe that I made the right choice to avoid dealing with them. These types of videos and the fact that educations incentives are lessened constantly for active duty members, are directly contributing to why younger generations are not joining the military. The government spends our tax paid defense budget on military technology and weapons and none of it for taking care of the soldiers/marines/airmen/sailors. The dwindling active duty size should be completely unsurprising to the top brass if they used their brains.

[@austinfowler2707]

So, one of my coworkers was a vet. All of really knew was he was younger than 35 at most at this time and he was a vet. We were all eating, and the topic of military service came up and one of us non vets mentioned you see some fucked up things. We had another co worker who just did not get the hint and asked Vet what did he see. He went on to tell us a story of him being deployed to Japan, as some sort of Coast Guard where he'd be on a boat, and would routinely check boats for Contraband. Apparently, one of his comrades couldn't handle the stress, so he jumped out a window. I do not remember much about the rest of the conversation, as I was angry with the guy who caused the Vet to tell this story, because it was clear it still stung him emotionally. Now, 4 years or so later, I'd have pulled not-vet aside and calmly but firmly told him off, that asking questions like that is not something you should unless you're good friends with them. Unfortunately I did not. I might have in the moment said 'hey, not the time' or something, but I can't remember. Call me being offended on someone's behalf, but my uncle was a Vet in the early 90s, and he doesn't like to talk about it much. So I just assumed you don't ask Vets that.

Lucid dreaming actually causes sleep paralysis.

“People underestimate how bad an explosion is” I don’t know who those people are but they may want to rethink their opinions… 😂 I don’t think a lot of people know that the percussion can blow you ear drums out instead of the sound. Luke skywalker may be slightly allergic to married iguana’s… I’ve had a buddy have that reaction… But worse😂 and it does happen every time someone smokes like he mentioned.

I'm a combat engineer. We blew up around a ton of TNT and it's pretty mild, slow explosive. It was around a km away but still it rocked the ground below you and gave you a nice shockwave.

16:47 honestly fuck those types of people who tell veterans to kill themselves. That is so fucked up. My mans fighting some crazy demons and there’s people like that who have the nerve to say kys. Unreal.

Hey! I love your videos man. I just got on the VR wave. What app are these sessions being facilitated on? I been on SPATIAL allot lately. Please lemme know & keep up the excellent content!

[@icrushill4614]

It's recorded on VRChat

[@Philitron128]

Lmao at 21:46 says "Trying to get mental health help" and pulls out a gun

[@alexcarter8807]

One thing I think is essential to non-US'ians understanding US veterans ... I'd seen people die and been shot at before I ever joined up. And I'm nothing special, didn't come from a bad background (for an American).

[@mostlycusimbored]

Really relatable that weed bit 😂😂😂

[@arklados3596]

Korea deployment can only mean one thing… soju….

[@CBRN-115]

Lots and lots of it

[@AimlessSavant]

:o yey. I love hearing from this dude again.

[@maxamaxa194]

Great video. I'm so glad he's doing better.

[@somewhatobnoxiouseaglesfan6592]

The sleep paralysis part got me good, Holy shit. Genuinely felt like he was reading my thoughts 😅😅

[@bucc9661]

There's something so wholesome about the opening few minutes of those two just chatting the shit and laughing together. It's like a couple friends coming together to hang out.

[@fishpenetrator5381]

i fell you brother the sleep paralisis really sucks it just lets your mind run wild while not being able to move or breathe

[@ifyouonlyknew34]

Thank y'all. I'm trying to be a content creator, and being a disabled combat vet who is severely traumatized by war is freaking me out, but I'm getting into it with these talks. Especially knowing that someone else called their mom "piss drunk" while in Korea. I used to cry like no one's business.

[@federalbureauofinvestigati9177]

Glad to see Struggle doing alr. When the og vid came out I was really down because of covid, I found comfort in not suffering alone, but now Im better, and Im glad hes better as well.
