Coming home from the military
#1
Coming home from the military
My brother, who I love very much, is set to get out of the military around the same time I graduate. I'm worried for him, though. He's made it clear to me that he doesn't like the military anymore because it has made him so short and aggressive. He's always been a little quick to anger, but now-a-days he flies off the handle so easily it's a little scary. Let me make it clear that he is not violent, but he wouldn't handle the "normal" world very easily, where everyone is an asshole. I know he is required to wait 6 months before getting a job or going to school because of the increased aggression his particular "job" in the military carries (he's in the Marines as a Security Forces guy, anti-terror forces. I'm happy to say he was never in battle, though, we were worried with all the Libya stuff!). Does anyone have in experience is bring someone like him back into the "real world"? I love my brother and I just want him to succeed.
