What do you miss most about the military?
Let me guess… camaraderie.
It’s the most popular answer. We all saw it. Service members can be seen drinking together, working together, and supporting one another.
In the Marine Corps, our Physical Fitness Test (PFT) involves a three-mile run. Which is crazy to me now, because I get winded after one mile.
Most Marines I served with could complete their run in 19 to 22 minutes. Of course, there were plenty that fell beyond that time. During many of my PFTs, I would see Marines finish the three miles in 19 or 20 minutes, catch their breath, and then run back to motivate the slower Marines.
It was inspiring. Actions like that are what made it an honor to say I served in the United States Marine Corps.
