Having been in the 82nd ABN Div (infantry) for three years left me with a love hate relationship with helmets. In my opinion they’re only good for jumping as they impaired my hearing and sight, both of which I relied heavily on during missions.
Now why I stayed in SF is another story and much of the reason for this website. Special Forces is a unit and a group of men unlike any other I’ve ever seen in training or on the battlefield. It was a pleasure to have served with such honorable men.

Actually, I have heard that a lot more than once. It is also on my list, I just don't talk about it much.
