I have been in the Army for 12 years active AON and find my self alone more than not in this regard. I am sure that other people have the same problem everyday and am looking for different points of view.

Everything is significant, everything SF does is significant and strategic,
including, how we pack a ruck sack. The tasks SF does, few can do.
Hold to your 'standards', the world will be better if you do.
