A Marine Corps Officer sitting in a fighting position captures the feeling of every warfighter in the history of the world with one simple quote. "War is Hell."

It doesn't matter what your military occupational specialty is. It doesn't matter if you were on a small combat outpost alone and unafraid receiving Grade F steak from palletized resupplies kicked from the back of C-130s, or if you were a water purification specialist re-tasked with guarding an ammo resupply point on one of the largest air bases in Iraq. Everyone who's been deployed in some capacity has something in common with every other person who's been deployed. We've all spent time in a war zone where every single day we woke up wishing we were anywhere else.

This video captures that broad experience perfectly, and it does so in under one minute. If you know, you know. If you don't know, you know a little bit more now.
