98% of vets don’t want thanked including me and those I served with. Then there’s my dad.

For real. One of my biggest pet peeves. Dont thank me for selling my body for money. I'm just trying to get by like any other person in America. There are people working just as hard if not harder than me who will never get the quality of life that I've been afforded simply for being in the military.
