They live through hell and frequently the most wounded, they live with the guilt, despair, of being in the war, they may exist happy but deep down they are a different person. Not everyone is a hero. Y'all live with the moments, fourth dimension when you were unsuccessful, when your actions would have helped your comrades, when your deportment go your comrades killed, you live with regret, joyous in the victory can never help you forget the time y'all accept spent. You are victorious for the people you have lost, the decisions you accept fabricated, the backbone y'all have shown only existence victorious in the state of war has a price to pay, irrevocable.

Life without war is never easy and but the ones how survived through information technology can understand. Soldiers are taught to fight just the actual combat starts after state of war which you are not even trained for. You rely on your weapon, leaders, comrades, god, luck in the war just hither you rely on your self to beat the horrors,they accept seen hell, sky, they have felt the mixed emotions of hope, despair, courage, victory, defeat, scared."
