Yep, I was right. Wow, how did anyone make it through? You guys must have been pretty badass.
I'm not sure what this is implying, but it sounds pretty typical and cliche from most folks who have gotten out and now believe the Army is full of weak sissies who wouldn't have been able to "hack it" in the "old days".
You may. 1998. Which I'm sure is waaaaayyyyy to late to be one of the "tough guys" that made it in the Army when it was "really hard". Oh, except for the fact that we actually have to fight wars, unlike the 1980s or 1990s.
I didn't notice anything in 1998 because I was a Private. It is different now because there are wars that require contracted help, which in my opinion, is pretty decent, particularly on the maintenance side.
