I agree. In fact, I'd like to see all of these armchair tough-guy-wannabes running for office (and their fucking supporters) subjected to a couple of pages out of the SERE training playbook -- followed by some remedial education in international law. The discourse in this country would be elevated immediately.
I have more balls than Trump or Ted Buttnugget. I'll be the first to admit I couldn't handle combat. I would get myself killed and or others in my rank. I don't pretend to be a badass. I know my limits.
Fuck, if I had control over the nuclear codes and you wanted them from me, all you'd have to do is chew something crunchy and gulp loudly near my ear. I am most certainly glad there are women and men up to that task, but the worst hypocrites are the ones who puff out their chests as if they could but would run at the first bullet fired.
On D-Day, many soldiers made it to the beach, but froze, I wouldn't have made it off the transport boat.
