$5 says owner never shuts up about how the 4 years he spent in the Marine Corps (but never seems eager to reenlist) were the best in his life..... even though 80% of the time he was hiding inside a washing machine at Parris Island because the other grunts were trying to give him another blanket party.

#1, That's something I've always thought about when it comes to members of the American military. The perpetual bravado and often misplaced parotitic narrative of serving the nation as a member of the forces overshadows the more dull and less obvious roles that support the operation of a functional military.
Many are eager to trumpet their standing in the forces and of what it can no doubt do for self and country - but following basic training - there has to be some poor dope that has to stock the vending machines or drive a forklift in a warehouse or is in charge of assembling and moving new furniture into an office somewhere.
In my observations - it's these types who are among the loudest service members and who have the softest hands. After their honorable discharge - they'll spend the rest of their lives trying to prove something to the rest of the world; of how hard and badass they were.
