From Navy SEAL to CIA to "lonely man"

Lot of memoirs show up from Navy SEALs

Certain things are becoming altogether too politicized and consumerized about Special Forces.

I left the Navy SEALs after nearly 6 years because I wanted more action and didn’t want to end up a lonely man
Shawn Ryan left the Navy SEALs because he wasn’t seeing enough combat and he didn’t like what being a SEAL long term had done to his comrades.

Many churches and communities in the United States are very civilianized, pro-gun-control, and anti-military even though they depend for their very existence on the defenses provided by the U.S. military.

Pimping, prostitution and drug dealing throughout the said churches and communities have left honorable men lonely and bereft of friendships while catering to dishonorable whorebucks.

It's the moral backsliding and thanklessness of their hometown communities that these men encounter on their return from active duty.

On the subject of the legal category of "discharges other than dishonorable" that phrase is a indication of a marked societal discomfort with veterans, together with a preference for the company of those who have, e.g., "served their time" in prison and/or "paid their debts" to the said society.

Some churches and other religious institutions are not only forbidding to marry and commanding to abstain from hunting [1 Timothy 4:3–4] but requiring or extorting confessions of sinfulness for any and all prior military service with full intentions of pursuing any and all possible criminal charges for the same.

As if one should go to church and make confessions that are forced and not free. Church people are safe and peaceful thanks to what veterans have done, but veterans especially are apparently supposed to lay down their arms, give up their guns and accept the consumerism and bloodguiltiness imposed on them by a "civilized" society that refuses to recognize the necessity of a well-regulated Militia of free people freely bearing arms for its security and defense.

Should veterans tell stories to homebodies who turn out to be political enemies? Which stories are safe to tell? And which ought to remain secret? Realizing all secrets do leak eventually, and the truth will out regardless of anybody's opinion.
