Lo que más extraño durante su tiempo en las fuerzas armadas

I was overseas about three years plus the fact that I was not able to see my family before going overseas since they were in the 'off limits' zone.

¿En lo personal, qué obtuvo de su experiencia militar?

To realize that so many young men gave their lives for freedom and to think that our government seems to forget these men who will never be a part of what they fought for.
