If a civilian would tell you as a soldier that they had the same training soldiers have because they play video games all day like cod. What would your reaction be? I see post like this all over the place and I just laugh knowing that this guy would crap his pants if he has been down range without our training.

Board gamers like my friends who play chess and Risk alot seem to be quite excellent strategic thinkers. There is at least something to 'gaming ' although if the game requires more strategic thought and planning, I think the game is more helpful.

He'd crap his pants run away like a coward, and let his brothers die behind him. That's what separates civilian from our brothers in the service.

I'm a gamer and a veteran and nothing prepares you to sit and wait for 250000 artillery rounds to land in area 1 south Korea let alone a game that glorifies killing in a way that doesn't hit you like the real thing you turn of a game and forget the enemy but when you come home from deployment it comes home with you I can never forget
