Sgt Mike, welcome and of course, my thanks for your service to our country.
I noticed in the video~ "As the trainer in the video puts it “dog’s don’t understand death” and are just out there to work and do their duty." I fully understand what you are saying. On the other hand, guys like you do understand death and yet risk it to protect and enable us to enjoy the freedom we so cherish. That humbles me, as it should every American.
My daughter was a Navy Ensign, graduating from the Naval Academy. Unfortunately she was killed in a double murder/suicide, six months after graduation. I was blessed in becoming familiar with the military. I served as an information officer with the Academy. I also was fortunate enough to make many educational trips with the Navy. The one that stands out is my visit to Camp Lejeune where we were "treated" to a simulation of what the recruits go through. I am still in awe of all our military personnel.
Sorry to be so long-winded. So many wonderful memories flooded my mind.
