Navy SEAL Jocko Willink's 7 Ways Veterans Can Own Their Transition

I found the transition very difficult, one day I’m at Camp Lejeune surrounded by Marines like I’ve done everyday for 4 years, then one day you EAS and your driving home. We didn’t do civilians back then we were always together and took care of ourselves and then your back on the block with jerkoffs and assholes. Took about 3 months to assimilate, going back to school helped a lot as I was older than most of our class, one guy was retired Army so that helped quite a bit.

Own your past enjoy the future, life carries on. Enjoy the new adventure. You erned it. You are owed nothing, go for broke! 50 years of life, love it! Been th ere done that! 71 what a great life!
