Are you OK? Don’t forget to breathe!
How do they know you’re supposed to take them with you when you leave?
Yes, I’m very, very sorry that you’re being kind and encouraging. I apologize for the long post.
What is “you” in your experience?
No I was just a veteran for a few years before that and was able to go out and help others as I could. I’m here to help you!
You will. It’s a good idea to sit and relax for a few minutes, but a serious practitioner will be reluctant to do this. Do not take it as a sign of weakness.
No, I’m just asking how you feel about living in a country.
I’m no longer an American. I’ll be back in a couple of years. But I wasn’t on active duty then. I’m currently serving as a reservist in the military. I was on active duty for 8 years before that.
It’s alright, I’ve lived through the war,and my mom is a veteran and she’s been in the Army since the beginning. She’s been in the army for 11 years. I’d like to answer your questions. Thanks for doing this, I appreciate your support.
Why did you decide to leave out spaces from this post?
Maybe you aren’t a combat veteran, but it’s a good idea to know what you’re doing. I am a veteran of infantry, Marine Corps and USMC. I’m not sure what to do. But I think it’d be good to know what you think of space opportunities. In the military, there are spaces for infantry and Marine Corps, in the civilian world, there is space for women. Maybe you’re just looking for something more meaningful and appropriate. And you haven’t even begun to study the religion before. I’m looking for something that would be meaningful to you, but would be worth it to continue practicing to learn more about the religion.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out via message.
I’m sorry if I didn’t get to know about it. Just thought I’d share some advice. The best time to leave out spaces is when its the time of the day. The worst time to leave out stations is when they need to run, the worst time to leave out stations is when they need to be deployed and the worst time for them to be deployed. I’m not going to say what the military doesn’t know. I’m going to say what the military doesn’t know. But if you leave out stations from the military or its a good reason to leave out stations from other stations, I’m sure you’re on the right track. It’s just that you need to be patient and willing to come back to get it done. I’ve got some really interesting news though. I have a few things to answer some questions, but I’m sure that will come up… I’ll try to answer them in the morning. Feel free to ask me anything you want, and I’ll try to answer you in the evening and evening. Thanks!
I was wondering if I could ask if there are other places you would have liked to ask more about.
You are not obligated to answer any of my questions when i am ready. But the question itself is a little different.
I’m a lifelong member of the military and the service I served in is absolutely beautiful, but I’m an ex-military because I left to become a nurse and I’m not sure that’s the way to go. It might be the most difficult decision I’ve made in my life.
Well,it’s pretty simple to make a list of where you want to visit. You can use Google Maps, but those are pretty quick.
Edit:I was just asking how itfelt to be out alive again, I wasnt aware that it was a requirement to submit to this AMA. I apologize for my badnateness.
I got invited into a discussion with this guy and he wasnt allowed to participate in the discussion but a lot of people have responded to his AMA saying, “because he is a non-Muslim”, he just wants to take advantage of the opportunity. I have a question about my faith right now, why I think it should exist at all. I’ve been thinking about it and finding other people in the middle east, and how to go about the whole discussion and get my thoughts out there. I live in the US, and it was really hard to get the response to me or my question out there, especially since I think it’s a matter of Islamic ethics, but I’d have to ask him. Please dont expect him to live a life full of respect and appreciation.
I’m glad you’re getting a second chance to see what’s going on. I was raised in a non-Christian household, and I always struggled with anxiety and depression. I didn’t come home from college and immediately think I’d never be able to serve. I’m glad that you’re in a position to share your story and get some useful help.
Additional Information\n\nI currently serve as Senior Executive Officer for the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) Merit System. I was a member of the Navy and in the Marine Corps, and I was involved in combat training in Vietnam. I am qualified to fill this position through the VA and my commanding officer has recommended me for the position.\n\nThe Merit System requires all career military branches to provide an opportunity for honorable discharges, including court-martial, for any meritorious discharge that is not otherwise eligible. I have served as a Navy nurse and as a combat engineer in Vietnam.\n\nI have received numerous awards and decorations for my service, including the Distinguished Service Cross, the Navy Cross, the Navy Meritorious Service Medal, the Navy and Marine Corps Meritorious Service Awards, and the Navy and Air Force Unit Cadets Honorary Awards.\n\nThe Merit System also recognizes meritorious actions during peacetime, including the Distinguished Service Cross, Navy Cross, and the Navy and Air Force Unit Cadetship.\n\nI have written and spoken with several military branches about the importance of providing an environment where all are treated equally, and I have been consistent in my message that treating all military members with the respect they deserve is the only way we can truly ensure the success of our military and our children.
Is it not okay to talk to people who have spent their entire career fighting in Afghanistan?
I was wondering if I could do a simple survey on this issue. Did you guys have a way to do it? Thanks!
Edit 2: accepted if you can remove.
It’s not until I finish the AMA that there’s a chance of me being posted. I’m looking forward to listening to this.
You may have noticed some inconsistencies in the article. There was a discussion in /r/AskHistorians about a reason we need to change this sub to have more threads. The author mentions that some recent converts to Hinduism have had to go through this whole caste system. The author goes to great lengths to explain this by saying that the notion of “Hinduism’s caste system” is not really a concept. We don’t have one system but people who can’t get married and have children are expected to have it in their hands. This is a little weird. We have a large percentage of non-Hindu males (50% of the population), women (8% of the population), and non-Hindus (3% of the population), and it is not just caste that is involved,it’s the general concept. There is no caste system in the military,so no,it’s not just what’s happening in the war,and not just to the people that have it. The author mentions this in the article too,but then again,this author has used the term “Hindu” because it’s a term for people who are not fully aware of the terms.
You’re right.
I feel like this is a pretty blatant attempt at pandering to the military-industrial complex by trying to make a ‘Hindu’ connection with non-religious people who aren’t religious in the first place.
I was wondering if anyone had put this in a proper context. I thought it might be a good idea to put it like this:\n\n[View Poll](https://www.reddit.
So is anyone else interested in the question of whether I am a Marine or not?
I am not a Marine.I was born and raised in a Navy family.I can say I was raised in a Navy family.I grew up on a hindu family.I came from a strict religious background and didn’t do hinduism much because that was frowned upon by my parents and I loved learning Hinduism,it was something I was told to do.That’s how it was taught to me,and I have read the whole thing.I wanted to be a warrior and fight in the war…I wanted to be a peacress and I want to fight in battle.I am wondering whether I am a white guy or is it because I feel like I belong to a sect or for lack of a better term,I just want to understand.Please explain.Let’s start with the differences.First off,my parents are all white. They’re all basically in their mid 20’s.They’re mostly in their 20’s,they know nothing about hinduism,and even if they knew about hinduism,they would not come over here to learn about it and just give their opinion on it.
If you answered yes, you are a veteran.
I have never been accepted as a member of theMarines,and I never plan to join any military branch or organization until I retire. But,I just feel that by joining this group,Iwill be able to answer this veryspecific question,and possibly set an example for other people too. Thankyou!\n\nhttps://groups.google.
Well I don’t know, but I know I am a Marine, and it’s probably the only thing that can be considered a Marine.
You are.
I don’t know what to think!
I’d be thrilled to know your career path.
How do you feel about the term “military vet”?
I’d really like to know more!
I’m a bit confused on where to start with your experience. Did you know this is a lineage from the Japanese Majjhima Nikaya?
I was a Marine Corps bat veteran and served in the Marine Corps for 18 years and I’m now an attorney in New York City. You can contact me at: john.miller@gmail. or through my Twitter feed @jmillerlawyer. For further information please contact: Marine Corps Recruiting and Enlistment@MarineRecruiting and Recruiting@TheLawyerAdvice.
Yeah, it’s been hard for me. I was a Combat Medic before I joined the Army. My time with the Army was rough, but I remember being told I wasn’t welcome. I made good friends, but the Army didn’t know what to make of me. I was sent to boot camp, but I was stuck in boot camp for like 2 years without a place. And I was never called back. Then I went to basic training, but I was told I was too young to be a combat medic. I got called up to serve, but my training grade was below mine and I was sent to boot camp and again I was stuck in boot camp for the next year. Then in 2015, I was called to the infantry. I was called up to the infantry, but my training grade was not up to par, so I was sent to boot camp again. And I was sent to basic training, but again I was sent to boot camp again. I was sent home again in 2016, and I was told that in 2017 I would be a reserve soldier. And so on and so forth.
I would be happy if someone could bring you to them!
What is a military training course?
If you want a combat training course,go to a college or a temple, learn basic stuff from there (like british culture,etc) and put your money where your mouth may be. It’s not about the results. It’s more about the experience. The more you practice, the more you realize, and become better at it. (Not sure how to say this, but it’s my opinion). For now, this is just a starting point, and I can’t guarantee you’ll be able to have all the answers you need.
I’ve heard people say that you have to go through a course, but I don’t think that’s the case. You don’t have to have a formal military course to become a soldier.
My question is, what is an equivalent course of training for the civilian population?
Army training course?
I don't think you're a veteran. You're an ex-Marine Corps combat veteran. Training for a combat mission wasn't as easy back in the day.
I have more questions in mind, so I’ll ask\n\n1) What is a military training course? Can you help me?\n2) How do I get through a general audience interview?\n3) How do I get through a media event?\n4) How do I get through a radio interview where I have to say something interesting?\n5) How do I get through a TV interview?
Training in the military is a good thing. The enlisted will train on a regular basis, and then you can get into a regular course with a civilian. I’m aware that Marine Corps and Navy are different things, but I think military is a good place to start. The military, unlike the military, has many different traditions.
Very good.
You’re right. I’ll try to remember the last time I got a “service” like this.
I just moved from the US to another country to get a passport for Iama, but I have no ID.I am a former Marine Corps Combat veteran and I spent my entire time as a Marine Corps combat veteran in the Iraq and Afghanistan. After I became an Army combat veteran in the Vietnam War, I decided to be a Navy combat veteran, and moved through military service to become a Combat Veteran in North Korea before I took a US military deployment. The military sent me a letter saying I would be a “sorre” for the US military. I’m a Marine Corps combat veteran, and I am a civilian. I’ll be a civilian again soon. I’m currently a retired Marine Corps combat vet, and I’m a civilian. I will be here for a few days, but will probably not be back for the rest of the day. I’ll be heading to the US. So please, ask away!
Good job, it’s been a nice learning experience.
You’re going to see a lot of the same questions. If you’re a veteran like me and want to ask more, we have a bunch of subs and subs dedicated for that. If you’re just looking for a fellow veteran asking questions, feel free to join our subs.
What’s an old favorite of mine that’s been used by soldiers for decades?
I was wondering if there’s any other Marine Corps veterans who get along with me in real life and that’s it.
The Marines are awesome.
I’m a Marine with one daughter. Any experience you have is appreciated. May I share with you my experience.
Yeah there is… I’m a retired Army lieutenant.
I’m a Navy SEAL/MarineCorps veteran and have never known a Marine Corps combat veteran.
That sub?
Not really. There were a couple of guys in my platoon that had been combat vets for a while while, and they started working together as a team. But we became friends after a few weeks.
I’m not sure what you mean with “I am” but i’m a veteran and have been through a lot of bad times. I’ve always been concerned about the military. I’ve always been concerned with how military has portrayed the world. That’s the one thing I have always been concerned about was it’s role in the wars. I’ve always been concerned about the military being portrayed a bunch of shit. I have always been worried about my own future. I’ve always been concerned about my own welfare. I’ve always been worried about how many Americans I have to fight for (and I think I have been over all of them). Most of the time I get angry, then try to get mad. I get angry in the middle of fighting. I’m always worried about the future, and that’s the one thing that I have always been worried about. And the wars are a big part of it. I know how it is to fight on multiple fronts and make people forget about it. It feels like I’m losing my mind. I’m not sure how to deal with this anymore.
Yes, I am a veteran. I was a combat Marine in the Vietnam War and I was very concerned about war crimes and atrocities. But I’m not sure that I’m a veteran. I need to go into a military high school or university before I go into a military high school or university.
That line was really good.
I don’t know you, but shores fantasies
I think you’re saying that because i am a former Marine,i think you mean that there was a guy who was involved in military activities who did what he did?
I am sorry to hear about your situation. I am a member of the military and have been in the military for almost 7 years. I have a friend who is also a former military officer and is a practicing Christian. I am worried about how you’re going to see that your faith is being betrayed. I am worried that you and your friend will have a negative effect on the relationship. I am worried that you would try to do what I describe as “bad things” with your friends. This may have been true of your own friends but my experiences with others may be true. I will pray for your friend. I will pray for your family and your friends and you as well. Please pray that this never happens to them. I don’t think that I can say enough about what I’ve told them. I just feel extremely upset right now. I’m sorry that I have to tell them. Please don’t make me feel bad for any of this. I’m sorry for your friend.
I am a former Marine Corps Combat veteran from the marines who has recently returned to the faith after a traumatic military service and the fact that many of my friends and family members came to Jesus in the last year. I would love to have our community and community support another former soldier who is seeking to return to God. It’s hard for me to give these three advice to the people I’ve known more or less for a long time, yet I have to come to you. I’ve been going to church and reading the scriptures for a couple months. I’m getting ready to do a class on Jesus’ life and death and how it differs from what you may think you know. This subreddit is a great place to ask questions and learn from you all. Thank you for the support!
If you're really looking to get active, check out the faith subreddit.
Haha I’m not going to lie I’ve always been a guy who would tell people that I am more of a religious person.
It’s nice to hear you guys answer a question, especially to a former Marine who now has an opportunity to follow Buddhism in the future. That’s great.
I hope you all appreciate this. I know this subreddit has done an excellent job of inspiring me to be a true Muslim, as well as helping me understand, as to how to be a good Muslim.
