Spend best years in training and battle
Lose an arm and a leg when defending the rest of the worlds freedom from the Nazis
Fast forward, be veteran
Slight PTSD, wince every time when hearing loud noise which sounds similar to gunfire
Depend on welfare because only 1 arm and 1 leg

So, healthy reminder to everyone out there, crying is a release and there’s no shame in it.
