IMO If he wants to Soldier, great. If he wants to use the Military as pony ride for his civilian career, he doesn't belong here. "Service" should be prefaced with "selfless".
Maybe we can slap a Go Army sticker on his tights. (There is that whole 'men in tights" thing . . . EU!)

"This is freaking fantastic news. Right now, the Special Forces group that I recently left are deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan . Every single friend of mine is over there and I was planning on emailing every one of them the results of my fight right after it finished on Friday, but instead they get to watch it. I'll be emailing everyone tonight and telling them and letting them know.
Aside from the fact that I'm an old, cynical, out-of-touch, hate-filled, grouch with no friends (except RL -- and look where that's gotten me) does this sound a little "It's All About Me".
OBTW IMHO Hand to Hand Combat starts at the maximum effective range of an M-4.
