Every man knows someone, who knows someone, who knows a military person that fought in a war. The USA started the War Department in 1789 and changed it into the all encompassing Department of Defense in 1949. Guess what? The Department has never shut down. So that means we’ve always been at war with many factions that threaten US interests anywhere in the world. You just might not hear about them. Highly trained Special Forces are sent to other countries to stop the foreign Bad Guys (BG). What defines BG depends on which side you are fighting for. Are they occupiers brought in to protect a foreign business harvesting a natural resource in that county? Or are they the ones trying to regain their assets? Soldiers are sent in discretely to put a halt to those other soldiers and their antics. The problem escalates when 1 of the local warriors kills a US combatant as they try to protect their turf from these invaders. Retaliation ensues. This unleashes incredible loyalty on both sides as they no longer fight for their countries. They now kill for their comrades. The savagery that takes place is not for the faint of heart as human tissue is shredded with bullets and bayonets. The animalistic rage that shows is unfathomable as brave, frenzied men from both sides go out of control. When it ends, there’s not much to do except retrieve the dismembered, bloodied bodies before the insect world lays claim to these heroes. In the bars of America, or the barns of the war-torn country, are stories by regular citizens of those soldiers who fought for their country to save them from their enemies. Praise is bestowed upon them by the common people who are thankful for their sacrifices and wish they had the gumption to do that. In the US, around 17 ex-military people who survived these turf wars commit suicide every day. Not known are the number of the other soldiers who also commit suicide per day. Heroes unfortunately live in hell for what they saw and did.
