DD I would just like to to let you know that I knwo a few guys that were ex-special forces who joined the dept. they are great at there job strong, obey orders the types of guy syou would follow into a fire anywhere cause they have your back--I do caution you but hope to not discourage you but this is a high stress job full of black humor, and life or death decisions, sometimes juat as in war we have to make a split second decision as to who will live and who will die, NOT to put a damper on it It helps me so much to focus and do my job that I wish you the sam e just dont think its a cake walk compared to th e horrors of war it is just a different type of war fought with different weapons.

Thanks Mouse,

I do realize that it is a war. I can deal with black humor, to be honest, most my conversations include black humor,... I think fast in emergencies, I have been around for a couple and it seems that I am the most calm and take charge, its second nature so I dont need to think about it, its more a reaction. Team work runs through my blood, comming from an environment where no one is left behind (dead or alive) and we depend on each other for survival. I have never fought for politics, religious beliefs, land or OIL, I fight for those men fighting besides me. I guess all and all, the thought that it is a war attracts me in the sence that in those conditions I feel like I am in my prime state, that and in this war you fight to save lives. I do appreciate the heads up and concern. I can see how it can mess with someone who does not expect to come across traumatic situations. It would be a reality check.
Thanks again Mouse,

DD
 
Hi DD. You're an ex-serviceman like me and we all stick together buddy. Just like in action you rely on the guy next to you. Well being a Civvie (Civilian) like me now we still all stick together. You know I think that if we both served together we'd be great buddies.
Cheers buddy and good luck with your training.
Cheers
