It is difficult to transition from being in the military to a "civilian" life after taking & following orders for so long. I was only active duty for 3 yrs. There is some value of being in the military, discipline, team work, etc. With that said, when I got out, I carried that discipline with me, however, it felt at times liberating to actually say no once in a while or to have a discussion with a boss about certain things, or to be a bit of a rebel, whereas in the military that didn't happen too often. One of the "rules" was no PDA (public display of affection). So if I was out in uniform with my husband I was not allowed to kiss him in public. Anyway, I think some of these normies need some discipline especially how to show respect.
