It's a very similar time.
A very similar time.
I tell those young guys now, I didn't shoot my weapon at the enemy for 13 years.
And the way you just expressed that, I would have never expressed that
because I was having a freaking great time.
We were training hard.
We were jumping out of airplanes.
We were, you know, diving and shooting machine guns and blowing things up.
And like, that's what we were getting ready, getting ready, getting ready.
And so I understand the expression, because now, of course, we all look back like, gosh, how could you wait around for 13 years?
But that's what it was.
That's what we lived in.
That's the water that we drank.
And so it was, hey, this is what we're doing.
And by the way,
You're with an awesome bunch of guys.
We have fun.
Everything is like super professional and also super fun.
You know, it's being in a SEAL platoon, man.
Yeah.
