There’s an old guy in my neighborhood who’s a Vietnam vet; he did one tour in the army and got out. The back of his car is covered in military-related stickers, and it’s front and center when you talk to him.
I’m sympathetic that he was tossed into something heavy at 18 years old, but I don’t understand basing one’s entire personality on, and ruining a nice paint job for, something you did for 18 months, 54 years ago.
Finally, he’s a big Trump fan.
I think it's often a gender identity thing, they can't consume their way to masculinity because they're too poor so they embrace combat, the only other capitalism approved expression of maleness.
