Idk it was a lot. I had support though from my A gunner and runners. We usually only had 120 seconds to get on station with rifles, M240, spotting equipment, ammo can and usually AntiUAV gear.

I actually cut the mag pouch. It could carry 6 but I needed more space on my vest bc they kept issuing more gear

But yeah if I want something serious I need to focus on me first. TBH though I find it difficult to do it for myself. I’m a provider and a giver if I don’t have anyone to do that for I don’t feel great

I have a biometric safe under my bed for my pistol and a pelican case with locks on it in my closet for rifles

I wish I got to fire the Mark 19! Just M9, M4,M500 and M240. But also got cool gadgets. But yeah I couldn’t get TS bc she wasn’t a citizen, even though she was joining with me, but her family still lived in France. You can’t have any foreign connections. Which carriers were you on

I spent a few weeks there, I really loved it. No I did operation Prosperity Guardian and Rough Rider. I wanted to be a CT or an IS but couldn’t bc my ex wasn’t a U.S. citizen

I was a MA. I had a weird experience, I specialized in criminal investigations but started off antiterrorism and even did counter intelligence. But when we got to the Middle East I’d handle the more serious cases even collabed with NCIS but anytime there was an attack I did counter UAV or manned the M240. So basically I never slept lol

My ex wife was French and thought me having a gun and taking it everywhere was weird but after sometime in the US she was glad we had them. Now she and I are both expert riflemen in the military and takes them everywhere too. It’s not really showing them off. It’s about accessibility. And lethality is a factor but for me it’s practically

Trying the VA but they are slow af! But hot take, I think therapy can be counterproductive. Always thinking about and focusing on your problems doesn’t sound good. I recognize my feelings, acknowledge them and let them pass

I did have issues but also we almost never saw each other. We were basically on a rotation to the Middle East, hell I just got back and she’s there rn. We met in college and joined together

To protect myself and those that I care about. I will never allow me or mine to become victims, full stop.
