Greetings,
Here at Warriors Against Reintegration (W.A.R.), we pride ourselves in doing the opposite of what culture demands of us. We are warriors, and warriors don’t conform. No shit right? You would think this would be a no-brainer. We didn’t choose this path just to backtrack and be “Billy on the Block”. Transition isn’t real. It is a farce of bubblegum ideology from hippie-dippie socialist. Don’t fall into that punji trap. Join the W.A.R. movement, and keep being awesome.
Have you ever gone to a bar and had some dip shit give you the googlie eye because you have a t-shirt that has your branch of service on it? They should if you wear a bunch of moto trash, like custom made Nike’s with airbrushed HOOAH on the sides or some mess. No, you are the casual veteran that likes to rep a tee every now and then. You leave your shield at the door. Why do we not have shield racks? I will tell you why: a bunch of self-righteous hippies think shields are the devil, so they would rather have bicycle racks for their gender-confused friends and space for the mobility scooters of the impossibly obese. Have that hipster hold your axe the next time you order a beer. Hopefully his sissy arms won’t break under the weight of an 8 pound household item.
That’s right, we are bringing sissy back like it’s 1995. The populace at large doesn’t know diddly about us, nor do they actually care to take the time to learn. Don’t you stand there and lie to me saying you genuinely care and support the troops. That was a magnet your ass bought from Walmart. Half of the civilian population would think the Department of Defense is the governing body of Mixed Martial Arts if you told them. Saving some cross-eyed toads in a third world country on the other side of the planet is more important than actually knowing about the people around in any general sense. Isn’t that right hippies? That old man down the street is just some jerk, because he tells you to slow down when you blast through in your 84 Honda. Never mind that he has shrapnel in his spine and still holds a day job.
We aren’t going to let a bunch of limp-wristed-jack-wagons tell us to be something we are not. Why you ask? Because we don’t care what a bunch of Nancy Boys feel like because they live at home with their parents and rage on Call of Duty. The shit show of college bound, pseudo intellectuals continues to divide our nation in an attempt to gain one more participation trophy by gargling man parts. We don’t do participation trophies homie (except for the Army…that damn participation ribbon-you know which one). What we give out is earned, and usually by some unfortunate turn of painful events that often leave lifelong scaring and mental anguish. You better get you some scaring and mental anguish if you want street cred in this establishment. Getting stabbed with a fork from your cousin Dante doesn’t count. Neither does getting bit by your aunts’ vicious Chihuahua; even if it was on your eyeball. Should have stayed out of the little fuckers’ face.
Only warriors need apply. Sword-carrying, gun-slinging, angry, men and women need to tell those sissy, hipster do-nothings to go suck start a Harley. We will not retract, retreat, or reintegrate. It is time we rise. We are W.A.R., and we are truly legion. Eat shit comic books; we’ve got this.
P.S. Hillary Clinton is a traitor worse than Jane Fonda. When did it become popular to get people killed and make a career on camera afterwards? I will tell you when: hippies. Hippies are the root to the cancerous core that spawned hipsters and frappuccinos. They also ruined Batman with Ben Affleck’s dumb ass. Call your congressman. Do something to stem the tide of idiocy today, but mainly find that one ass-hat that hasn’t arrested Hillary Clinton yet. What the hell is this person waiting for? Get your shit together Trey Gowdy, quit tiptoeing. Tell that security detail to bust out the handcuffs and lay the smack down on that traitorous clown.
Thank you.

Yes! Thank you! There is no such thing as reintegration. It is a made-up, superficial, lie created in an attempt to full warriors into thinking that the last however-many-years of service didn’t actually change you or who you are at the very depths of your soul. And don’t kid yourself Air Force, we all know that – while the Army hands out 1 participation ribbon – you guys usually leave basic with 6! Perfect, down-to-earth, no beat around the bush, statement, and I’m with you.
This is outfreakinstanding! So spot on! How much are monthly dues and where can I sign up?! Can we start our own legit community? Warfighters only, must have proof on your DD-214 to be allowed entry. Just a thought, keep um coming brother!
You always enlighten this sissy civilian!! That btw hated my participation ribbon in ballet at age 10, long before the 90’s! Well written with a tremendous thought process, but may be too harsh for sissy civilians (not including me) to read. I am guilty of googlie eyes, but it’s because I truly see anyone that signed up as my super hero! I think there has to be a responsible balance for the reintegration conversation as we don’t want the warrior to conform to something he is not but we do want them to be back and part of our lives. We do want to learn from them and try to understand what we don’t know because we are sissies. (I’m using that term because I’m proud I can admit I’m one) 🙂 We (well some of us) know we can never fully understand, but if we don’t try, we can’t help and support. What we don’t want is our military members to isolate themselves out of pride or thought that no one understands. That’s why I work as hard as I can for the Warrior Bonfire so to put our warriors together (using a DD214 as proof) so you can help and push each other. I love your passion Jeremy! Keep it up! Oh, one more thing… For someone with undiagnosed ADD the paragraph between the rolling car and dog took me about 5 attempts to read! Lol
I appreciate all of the work you do Helen. Few people go as far as you. I didn’t mention it in this story, but I have a different view on the Warrior Class than most people. I consider military as Spartans, and all of those that support, aspire, or wish to protect their families as hoplites. Most don’t know that Spartans were hoplites as well. All of Greece contributed to the attire of building the hoplite into a heavy infantry soldier, not just Sparta. It was their warrior class. It is the same today as it has always been. We have just failed to realize now that we cannot outgrow the Warrior Class through feigning we have no reason for them. You are part of a class that the world wishes didn’t exist. Everyday we remain, we remind them of their past and all of the struggles history has provided. The difference is we are proud to be who we are; they are not. The world is going through some identity issues at the moment.
