War is evil run rampant.

It changes you into someone or something you never knew you were; it makes your soul bleed. In order for you to understand what I am saying, you would have to experience war like Jack and Bill. Then and only then could you begin to grasp the horror and madness of the death and destruction that surrounds you 24 hours a day. And if you’re lucky, and I emphasize lucky, and return to the world, war is not just something you will leave on the battlefield. It will be with you until you take your last breath. I am so glad Jack and Bill returned to the world, found peace, and became friends. Semper-Fi my brothers.
