I've watched enough military movies to know that, time is the most valuable asset. One day, you're swapping bullets and the next day, you're drowning in them. I know that every time you pick up a gun, you're holding death. I know that every bullet is a phone call to home from your commanding officer telling your family how outstanding your service to your country has been.
Every soldier, every partner is a life on its own. Every man for themselves because when I get killed, we can't swap places so instead we swap stories of our life cause we know that soon it's going to end. Every mission is a doorway to a head shot, so you use your head so you don't get shot. You assume position in the safest place only to be found by a ****** that marks you with a laser the same color as your blood, so there's no surprise when this ****** takes you out.
You served well, soldier. But your battle is over.
