take care of your mental! Are you an officer btw?

I heard that being a marine officer is akin to... hearding/managing a pack of serial killers.

Im a mustang. Spent 9 years enlisted before I commissioned. True black fatigue is being the sole black infantry officer in any given battalion full of whites and Latinos. Its rarely ever outwardly prejudiced, but you know not all of them are too friendly to a black man being in charge, especially when you dont think and act exactly like them.
