Thanks for your service brother. I did 12 or almost 13 years in the Marines. Yep, lots of combat time. Wish I were still there with my boys most days except for being able to be here with my kids is a worthy trade off. Such divisive times out here in the real world - none of that exists in the small team environment tucked away in the mountains days away from home. At least not in my experience. We didn't care about each other's skin color, political beliefs or religious philosophy. We cared about each other unconditionally in full acceptance of our faults. We relied on exceptional training, faith in each other, reliable recon and our own moral values.
