Structure in the Military

Transcript

Shortly after my second tour I got out of the military. I had, I wouldn’t say...... I wasn’t, I had little patience for things. I may have had some anger issues. I did see a therapist for that and just, I don’t know, if you’re doing something do it well. And that’s, even today, if you’re doing something do it well or go somewhere else. That's one of the reasons why I liked military so much, it was very well structured. If somebody was doing something that wasn’t right whether it be morally or any other way, it wasn’t right in some way, shape or form, eventually they’re going to get sorted out. The right is going to come out. However, in civilian life, that doesn’t happen. So that was kind of hard to adjust to in that manner.
