美国大兵对家庭和战争的看法

You want to go ahead and stack on over there, getting your squad formations.  I joined the army in 2003 after college, 9/11 happened and everyone, each of you get on this, unitarily got deployed next.

This will be your third deployment. Yes!

Now a lot of shelves in Afghanistan. They've got, they're not, they're not like this, you know they are a lot different.

I am married, I have 3 kids. Trever is my 7-year-old son and he is a handful. Here and you've got my two little girls -- Avigil who is three and Alice one.

You see one of the most, the biggest parts of the fight that we're getting to is anywhere on commerce and that’s the bizarre.

Most of our deployments and most of the operations that we execute are very high risk. Every day for the most part, our soldiers are in harm’s way.

You know, when you deploy, you always make that plan for when I get back or what we're going to do, but in reality, you don't know if you're coming back.

You give up the possibility of seeing your kids graduate high school, and, you know walking your daughters down the island, you know, waiting for my son to start being a 7-year-old little boy and start being a young man next to our doing stuff with.

When I was younger I remembered, you know, Memorial Day beginning in the summer. But now, that, people that I know have died. It's definitely a little more somber and you take that somber reflection with them and hopefully get to see; you know, give these to their families and see their kids.

It's worth it. It is our country and I do believe in what our country stands for. It's a better feeling to know that the fights on someone else's front door step and you can come home to yours.
