I can run for miles,
My reaction time is flawless,
My aim with a gun is accurate;
But I cannot fight.
I have national pride,
A desire to defend my people,
A survivors instinct;
But I cannot fight.
I am young enough to join,
Old enough to know discipline,
Old enough to be mature;
But I cannot fight.
Being deaf kinda ***** sometimes.
There are no military jobs in the UK for people who have a hearing impairment. I used to dream of being a soldier as a kid. Cruelly ironic huh?
