So, I keep getting told every time I complain about some aspect of the military that is giving my husband or my family the shaft that I'm "enlisted" too. Oh, and my personal favorite...you knew about this when you married him! I say bull-hocky!
If I'm enlisted...where is the person I can go to when they treat my husband as their personal workhorse? Yes, working is his job, but work should be done by EVERYONE not just one! Who do I ask for clarification, when my husband was initially told that he was put on this shift because it wasn't fair for him not to be...because another airman had spent a whopping 3mo on it....my husband is now 7mo and counting, and stories have changed again about why they can't and won't move him to day shift. It was my understandimg that when "one sneezes they all blow their nose" in the military....what's good for one is supposed to be good for ALL!
AND...if I knew exactly what I was getting into by marrying someone...SO DO YOU...but, nobody likes hearing that, because its not true! How do we know what its like to have our husband being owned by the military when we have never been married? That's like saying you knew your car was going to break the day you bought it...Betcha you'd complain too!
I'm ready!
....for honor....to have people care more about their fellow members than they do themselves!
....for integrity...telling the TRUTH instead of fanning their own egos to make them look good on the outside!
....Service before self...ya, they used to know what this meant before they missed the first two!
Sound a little familiar?..they learn it in basic, and forget it as soon as they leave...please remember!
I hope the selfishness of the present military is soon to be a thing of the past! But, selfish leaders beget selfish troops!
