Belton, Texas native, Maj. Christopher Allen, carries a weighted duffel bag during an alternative physical training session. (Army)
In the back of every veteran’s closet, you’re likely to find some old uniforms, dusty caps, a stack of medical, training, and discharge records... maybe a few ribbons or medals. But these are just a few of the typical things that separated or retired service members keep with them. Other things, they’re stuck with forever.
So we compiled a list of the more non-traditional things that veterans carry for life.

SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL I kept everything from my military days. From time to time (like about every ten years) I open the foot locker and reminisce about those days that feel like yesterday but were so long ago.

I am stuck with military thinking and I like it. For example if their is an issue to be solved I think about what the close and deep fights are. How do I impact them. When I write about PTSD, I often think about it as a campaign plan for healing. I talk about infantry skills to people with PTSD - Taking care of yourself. :)
