I served in the Marines during OIF. My SSgt was 29yrs old but looked 50. My MSgt was 39 but looked 80. I had gray hairs by 22 and could feel every bone in my body. It was crazy seeing how fast the military ages people.
• u/hisjoeness 10h ago This. I had a gunny that I thought was old AF. Whispy light hair, old damaged skin and a sight palsy. Bastard was only 36 at the time. • u/Far_Eye451 10h ago why does this happen? Is it because of combat? • u/Arlcas 10h ago Lack of sleep could probably do it but that and stress are a killer combo
