Not many Veterans tell you a story as it`s traumatic it`s easier to just forget in your mind !
In the Eighties I was operational watching a house where Terrorist were meeting ! We were under cover I was the Driver and Mt best Mate was the Photographer !
We were hit by a Jcb from the rear we were in a Vauxhall Cavalier then shots were fired glass splintering and my mind just started pumping adrenaline ! I had a 9mil Browning but i just hit the accelerator we were in half of what the car had been all crushed at the back ! | We were then being chased by Black taxi`s with shots from armalites pinging the metal and wisping past us !
We reached the UK Forces check point and I cried out in joy too turn to my best friend to see he was dead he took a bullet to the head !
It took me over 10 years to tell this and in writing have a tear in my eye !
I was in depression for a year after until some awesome Lady helped me - I told you that part b4- Anyway no Hero but that`s what a veteran is

But I can`t stop crying
That`s what you bear honestly sharing how it is

My family never spoke on their experiences either. My dad still has flashbacks, always at night while sleeping. He wakes up pouring sweat.
The only time I ever heard my uncle speak of anything was when he was in the hospital his last days with cancer. The nurse ask him what he did in the military. He took the question literal and spoke on how he had to kill women and children because the men would strap bombs to them. 😢
Do not feel bad to cry. Crying is an emotional release.
Bless you for all you do. Yoi are here for a purpose.
