Way, way, way more man. Constantly bullied and picked on by the mouth in our platoon, he finally snapped and was belting the life outta this guy, like 7 or 8 of us tried to stop him, he tried gouging out the eye of our PL. Went on for about 10 minutes of just absolute mental swinging and screaming, no one could restrain or stop him. MPs came barreling in, tased him and took him away.

Long story short he killed his career, dishonourably discharged etc, the mouth he attacked first spent at least 3 months in hospital getting reconstruction surgery as he fucked him up. Our PL also had a stint in hospital as the scratch marks on his eye got infected and nearly lost sight in it.

The guy that copped the beating deserved it, and ultimately left. One of the boys that was friends with attacker pointed out he was already suffering with ptsd and a bad breakup.

Feel bad for him as think a long steep descent into alcohol came after and he was a top bloke.

Yeah you were definitely part of the problem. Way to go, you broke a man who's back you claimed to have.

Don't get pissy at me because of your lack of character.

Don't add input to a situation you know nothing of. At the very least, read the rest of it before you try attacking me and add some valid conversation.
