I was just wondering, how many people here are war veterans or have actually experienced real combat? I'm just 19 and I get the feeling there are a lot of people here who really know how being in a battlefield really feels like.

Yah. It sucks.

The best piece of advice I ever got:

"Keep a tight a**hole."

Second that and add keep your wit's about you and trust no one but your squadmates.

All too much, 17.5 years to current in USAF and have been part of every conflict/squirmish since 1985, to include Desert Storm and 19 trips back for flyzone protection. Most recently first to be gone and in place for OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM with a return trip scheduled very soon.
