There isn't anybody in the United States that serves, no matter what branch, that is forced to do it.
And maybe in the past, but not in the last 30, 40 years, I know there are stories where it was like, well, there's the draft, but then I've heard people say that they were given the ultimatum, go to jail or enlist.
But they don't do that anymore.
So the men and women that serve in our armed forces, they do it voluntarily.
Nobody is told they have to do it.
We are truly an all-volunteer force.
So whether they enlist, whatever branch they serve in, whether they're commissioned or enlisted, they all voluntarily did that to serve the country.
Even if the underlying motive was like, I'm going to get my college paid for after I do this.
It doesn't matter.
They're still giving up.
their life for four six eight twelve twenty years or more voluntarily and so when you do that there is this sense of the other people that you're working with have done that and and there's some common ground and there's times when you're all doing that sucks so like the the term embraces suck you know like you're all doing it together collectively you're like commiserating uh
but all to a common goal and you're doing it together.
It's the sense of even in the bad and the good,
Everybody knows inside that those that are there, whether they're like the worst airmen or soldiers ever that are just like the D-bag, you know, service member or the super try hard.
Everybody is there because they want to be there.
And then when they separate.
nobody selflessly does anything.
And I want to say maybe you had made this observation after we had separated, but I have definitely had other people that have mentioned it to me where they got to their next job and they're in the middle of like finishing up an email and it's like 3.30 and it's time to leave work.
And they were just trying to finish up the email and they like were instantly surrounded by the following co-workers.
They're like, hey, what are you doing?
