Blue Boy: Lessons from a Life in Uniform

By Buck Cole

Military stereotypes: they can project a na?ve, "pomp and platitudes" narrative that belies reality. The truth is that military service is as varied and unique as the people who served. Talk to a group of veterans, and you will find their stories bear witness to a wide range of experiences.

These are just a few of mine.

With six assignments in eleven years of service, there was no shortage of memories to draw upon. Some are funny, some heartbreaking, others unremarkable except to me. Yet, regardless of the outcome, these small remembrances nudge me back to that seminal and grateful learning experience of a life in uniform.
