The ones who can't are the ones still lying to themselves. No one takes a life and isn't affected it by it. Some glorify it and it enhardens their ego and belief they are themselves a "god". Other's see it for what it is, as an act of taking something no one on earth gave, therefore cannot be taken away.

I'm thankful I didn't have to kill anyone when I was serving because one time I was a split second away from pulling the trigger on a guy who came walking at me holding a steak knife. My interpreter talked to him and I had him tell the guy to not be carrying a knife around in his hand when coming to a check point. That would've haunted me the rest of my life because those memories stay in the mind, even if you manage to block them out.

The hardest shot, not my first but my second kill. The first I didn’t know what to expect for real, the second you know full well. This is the first time in 30 yrs I’ve even spoke about it outside of family , including brothers that have never seen it first hand. I’m still alone most of the time because I chose to stay in back ranch country because it was hard to face some things. His ordeal was different than mine. I was in Central America during most of the 80’s. Some of which was completely redacted from my records. Still holds the same impact to a person. Irving’s the first I’ve heard openly discuss the “Job”.

I totally understand what he is saying that taking a life changes you, my husband returned home from Iraq a shell of the man he was when he left home. it breaks my heart because my sons have never known the guy their dad was before the war because one was born 10 days before he deployed and our second was born a year after he returned home. Our son came home from School and said he had an interview with a marine recruiter and my husband lost his mind and told him absolutely no way in hell was either of his sons joining the military that they have 0 reason to join because both of them have college tuition already 100% paid for. The day I had a sit down conversation with my husband's case worker for the VA because of his PTSD and anxiety and panic disorder that he now has, I told her the army teaches these guys to go away to war, but they do nothing about teaching them to come home and integrate back into society and they dont care because they know that there will always be more soldiers coming right behind the ones that are now broken.

Just listening to him talk, it is obvious that he is an intelligent guy. That 1.7 is probably because his interests were outside of school at that time. If you don't care about something you are not going to try. Near the beginning of the video (I'm too lazy to look it up) he corrected his own grammar - it was a very minor error that I would not have noticed if he had not corrected it - and I wondered why he was so aware of his language. Then at the end to find out he is a writer it made sense. But also, as he said, in his sniper training, they were taught to pay attention to small details.

I followed my dad into law enforcement. Something he was told early in his career he told to me. He said "Every time you arrest someone, search your heart for a little remorse, if you do this you will never arrest the wrong person". I always felt just a little bad for people I arrested, not because they were being arrested but because their life and choices led them there. It's not the same as killing someone but in a way that I can't explain, I feel like I understand the kind of sadness he describes. He sees the humanity in everyone, even the enemy. Mad respect.

At the age of 7 I stood at the foot of my father's bed, as he layed there with 3 shots from an altercation he was in at a party in Mexico, the killer was never found and we moved back to the US shortly after with my mother's family. You view death and murder very differently when you see what it does to families, children and the years it takes to become a wounded/healed person. There is so much collateral damage that comes from killing. Now as a father of two daughter's, I live a life to work hard, and honor my family. My soul purpose is being a father that is there and works hard for his daughter's and their mother (my wife). God Bless Patrick. Great Interview!

Great interview from an amazing man. Shows you how war can screw up someone's mind. Glad to have heard how the birth of his son sent him down a path of rethinking his life and how adamant he was answering the question about if his son wanted to be a sniper. Really liked this guy, and I think there were different reasons why his grade point average was what it was. He definitely is smarter than that.😎👍❤️

My brother was one of the first to get deployed to Afghanistan. He was so young and the experience made him grow up way to quick. He came back a very different person and not in a good way. He hardly talked for months after his return. He slept on the floor every night as if he was still at war. It was painful to see him struggle with himself over what he experienced during that year. He unfortunately never recovered from his experience. I dont think people really understand the psychological effect war has on our servicemen and women. I was blown away that the army never even provided him with counseling even though he had asked for it. They literally didnt give 2 fcks about him when he came back. The respect I have for every person that serves or has served our country and fights for the freedoms we take for granted is HIGHLY respected in my book. Thank you all for your service!!!

I remember I got into amateur boxing and we had some teammates who got selected to go pro. We'd have separate training sessions and every Friday the whole team will meet in the main gym. These guys that were once amateur that got selected to go pros had an unusual look on their faces and demeanor. A look of high intensity hatred but they were all so calm and selfless. Like as if they were feared but yet so relaxed. It was just a different look on their faces and they way they presented themselves. They were so intuned together very seemingly focused on a mission like as if they were all going into battle, the same as you see professional team sports fire up in the dressing rooms before a match. A bit far fetched from War but I will never forget those eyes each one of them possessed.

I don't know of an 18 yr old fresh out of high school who's mind is mature enough to think like that. Most 18 yr olds join the military to either see the world, get an education, be all they can be like the commercial or because mamma gave the the altimatum of go to school, get a job or you're going to the service. It would take a special kind of weirdo to join because they want to go to war and kill people. I'm speaking from experience (I come from a military family). This dude joined because both his parents served and he wanted to be like his father. I said he's humble because he's not out here bragging about what he did. I've seen him on other videos and they treat him like a legend but he doesn't see it that way. Infact, he said he'd never allow his son to go to war and kill. He's 100% against that now......you sounding like you didn't watch the whole video but still got something to say! I guess that's what ya'll liberals do! Lol smh. Come on man.
