The way one dresses dictates how he could be addressed. I am Benjamin fobdly called bigben. I've always nursed my love for camouflage and this prompted me to join the Army.
I watched war films as a child and always wondered how fulfilled i would be when i finally put on my uniform.
Getting here has not been an easy journey. It has taken me away from love and family but has in turn chased the boy out of me and brought the real man in me out.
I've learnt to hold the moment i share with love ones dear cos those moments might be the last of its kind as tales of the warfront are untold till return.
Here at the military, my best friend, my confidant, my defense, my refuge is my pistol. I must not let it stray or get out of my sight lest my head be on a spike.
I decided to do the unusal by having a life outside the military walls.
Shout out to steemians all around the world.
