You heard the man feed them American BBQ.
REAL American barbecue, not the fake sh!t covered in raspberry sauce that other Korean youtubers tried to claim was authentic!
I second this.
Yes, take them to the Manimal Smokehouse in Itaewon. They deserve it!
@@mrnickbig1 gimme the video link, I can't find it and I just knew that there was a people like them
Let them taste the difference between American regional BBQ to decide the best.
I’m a US Army Infantry veteran. I would love to have those guys here to shoot some of our guns and enjoy some good ribs and brisket and meet some of my buddies that served in S Korea.
You had me @ brisket.
Yes! :)
That’ll be awesome 😊
I just enlisted in the Army as a infantry, don’t go to BT until towards the end of December. Can’t wait 😄
@@averagemobileplayergfs7383 you still have time to change your mind and join the USAF. We have better chow halls and steak on Fridays.
@@averagemobileplayergfs7383 Lose the handle Troop. You ain't even close to being a sniper. And you don't go to the front line to die, you go to make your enemy die for HIS country.
A tip for basic, look around you when you're there, spot the morons, and stay away from them.
Is it just me or can anyone else not hear after a little in the cideo
Same
Yep
Aye they had audio issues
Same
at about 2;30 cut out
As others have noted here, the MRE's they received aren't real ones. You can tell by the packaging and contents, they're much different than the ones we ate in the military. Those look like the commercial ones I always see at survival/outdoors stores.
Yeah
Can't say too much on the matter because I'm only a spouse, but for the first time I was able to video call my husband after BCT he was eating an MRE and these ones (in the video) did look a bit different than what he had.
Not true, those are just a different contractor. Contractors had different labels on every package that was produced. We saw that same package in 13' in FT Drum while training up with 10th Mt. Every base may not have the same run as say Bliss would compare to Drum or JBLMC. They cycle in and out with contractor time or once it ends.
@@gary6576 yea i was so confused by that cheese. It wasnt in a fkn gogurt tube
Among the closest you'll get as a civilian since y'know legalities and whatnot? Contractors making them are probably the same *well seems like portions from budget sopakco and MRE star are significantly smaller. Only company I see that is closest is meal kit supply
"The rations are too small"
You ain't the first and you won't be the last
Yea....but the amount of salt in these things have led to many cases of renal issues.
@@carminescurse Stay hydrated 😎
@@hassanbeydoun2460 you have no clue how renal retention works do you?
@@hassanbeydoun2460 the more water you drink, the more liquid the kidneys excrete into the bladder. This motion wears the organs, and the pathways, causing damage over long term. Your body will intake salt until it doesn't need any more. It dumps the rest. So by intaking salt portions, you increase the work on the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.
@@carminescurse Unfortunately I do not know😅 I was just lightheartedly supporting you (and others). Though you are correct. It is a health hazard if you keep eating that stuff😌
"I guess they don't eat much"
* LAUGHS IN AMERICAN *
BRUH XD
HAHAHAAA
To be fair, infantry rations aren't that big. Its hard to carry enough food for a full sized meal so they carry a few high calorie MREs.
So they are right in that sense.
Citizens are an entirely different story
@@DoraTheMFDestroya I'm not sure if these were "real" MRE's - it's been a long while since I had GI issue but there were often two larger components (fruitcake + entree, for example) while these just had one.
@@fyrchmyrddin1937 they aren't. From the label they look like a civilian brand. When I spent time with some of my marine friends they always had a large store of surplus field rations from Afghanistan. The MREs they had always came with, as you said, two larger main things instead of one. They also were usually protein and carbohydrate dense foods with small capsules for things like vitamins. (If they got the good MREs. Usually they always had their own vitamin pills or whatever since they could request then with each supply convoy.)
Did most of the videos sound cut out for anyone else even after refreshing the page?
yep
Yep I thought my phone just broke until I read the comments
Likley because of copyright
Thanks god it was not my phone or my earphones
And the screen dimmed a bit
MREs are designed to not let you feel “full”, being full makes u tired and obviously less mobile lol
Dude. Have you seen an American?
@@FLMKane lmaooo, im aware a lot of the US military are overweight. But the very small number of infantry deployed outside of FOBs who actually see combat and sometimes eat these MREs are rather fit.
Apparently you’ve never had one..
@@jaepark6648 During hurricane Ike they distributed MREs to the people of Texas so I had the chance to have them. I kept the small tabasco sauce that came with them. I can say for certain that they are not filling even by a long shot. They are nutritional rations that keep you going. Whether the portion size is small so that you arent tired i wouldnt know, but i woukdnt doubt it since they are originally military rations.
@@spetsnazttv6724 The army, navy, and air force has fat bodies, the marine corps will kick you out, although I have seen fat marines, they go on B.C.P, and get 6 months to get in shape or get the boot
Have them try American BBQ, Preferably Texas style.
Bro I’m not even from Texas and this is exactly what I was gonna type. The state is gorgeous, the people are great and the food is icing all over the cake!
If you gave them that they'd absolutely never ever want to leave or go anywhere else🤣🤣
Texas BBQ is the best! I love my state ❤️
The gravy and brisket mre is the only one that made me come close to puking in AIT. The gravy ruins the meat.
Beef maybe. Pork is done best in Bama.
Please get these guys a big, expensive steak dinner. I’ll chip in lol. Maybe surf and turf?
I'd chip in, too
Gotta give them the whole spread. Steak, lobster, smoked brisket, and ribs. Or maybe like Thanksgiving foods.
Nah they'll be fine on meatballs. Haha
A massive thanksgiving spread would be good. A juicy deep fried turkey, a pan of oyster stuffing, sweet potatoes, and make them eat that green bean casserole! lol Not allowed to get up until plate is clean!
we gotta get these boys a traditional Crawfish Boil.
Now these young men are what you’d call grateful.
I tasted an mre star and thought it was nasty 😳
"Older brother can you help me?"
😭😭😭 they are so innocent

All about Respect
Once again, I'm so glad these guys got out and weren't ground up and spit out by NK. They're far too good young men to deserve such a thing.
they arent N Korean, can you not tell by that fake uniform, the way they look, the way they speak, they way they act? that long hair and shades ?
@@KronStaro Are you a troll, or just ignorant? Doesn't matter if their uniforms are real or costume replicas. They're North Korean defectors who used to be in the NK army. They escaped and are living in South Korea, where Haneul can have long hair and wear shades if he wants to.
@@MisterHavoc How long does it take to grow hair that long from a crew cut? A N.Korean soldier doesnt all of a sudden turn into a S Korean teenager. Even their facial features are discernably S Korean. N Koreans have less attractive faces due to malnutrition in their country. Why are they wearing fake uniforms?
@@KronStaro I wasn't aware that people don't fill out from being malnourished when given quality food with quality nutrition. Also, "teenagers?" Seriously? These guys are in their mid-late 20s, having defected partway through their mandatory 10-year military conscription. And it's not like they're "fresh from the DMZ" with their haircuts either. Look up their channel "Buksital TV" and learn about their history and when they defected.
Edit: And they're wearing their uniforms because that's part of how they chose to make themselves stand out as TH-camrs. Again, look at their channel. Same uniforms there.
It's hard to imagine there's so many more because we should help them.
You guys said you want to try American barbecue. Well, from another channel where Koreans have tried American barbecue, there is a place called Manimal Smokehouse in Seoul.
There are a plenty of places in Korea and especially in Seoul for ABBQ. There used to be a place I would visit for soul food, too. My friends and I would go to a new restaurant every Saturday after work or school in Seoul or in parts of the Gyeonggi areas. Manimal was good but there are plenty of other places to check out, too. :)
Must have them eat there
You know these North Korean Soldiers right? Don't think they have those available to them.
@@havu2236 They're not in North Korea anymore.... they don't have computers or internet there they wouldn't even be able to go on TH-cam let alone upload videos of them exposing North Korea. Pretty sure in one of their other videos someone mentioned that the studio they film videos in is IN South Korea so yeah.. they would have access to those restaurants
@@niabiii ACtually north koreans are starting to have primarily "Smartphones" But extremely filtered internet access, Computers are still more rare. But a lot of them gets chinese phones with chinese carriers (Not allowed but still do it) and use the less but still filtered chinese networks.
When North Koreans say our rations are too small.
Our rations are too small.
Except those are civilian MRE's not actual military rations.
@@Casper-Ghostyour not wrong
The Average MREs we ate contain almost 3000 calories, that’s your entire daily recommended calorie intake
@@tristin6995 idk what kind of MREs you were eating but US military MREs have 1200 calories
Keep in mind, these two rockstars have been starved all their lives. As an American Infantry sergeant, I have never been able to eat an entire MRE, in one sitting. It can serve for two meals for me. And they should have taken the Cracker Challenge! Eat one cracker, (you get two) wait 60 seconds, then try to whistle. I seriously doubt you can!!!
I dropped my phone; just before the audio turned off in the vid & I started freaking out thinking I broke my phone 💀
Okay Hanuel, here goes: I'd like to see them eat delicious barbeque AND ribs! : ]
And desert too! 😬
I'd say they've earned it, after calling MRE's delicious.
Do we warn them about the itis or just let them sleep afterwards?
In America or in an American restaurant not just the fake immitation in korea.
@@negativeindustrial No warnings, just AFTERHMATH.
In 12 years of service I have never eaten that brand in the Army, this is a civilian brand. MRE STAR, that doesn't sound like the lowest bidder to me.
It is civvie but it's of pretty high quality. Alot of the accessories aren't GI but it's pretty close.
@@abelq8008 is it better than the MRE's issued in the military? I hated MREs, never really gave me the energy I needed. I really hope they discontinued that egg omelet one. Looks like baby shit and doesn't taste any good either.
@dancar Yeah, Cheese Egg Omelets. Maybe it was new and just be glad you didn't have to eat it. I enlisted in 2010.
@@chickendinner5572 my dog wouldn’t eat the omelette, she walked away.
Its definitely not made by the lowest bidder. They were able to open them fairly with ease like a Chip bag. I always had to use my Gerber to open mine because the top would always rip off so I couldn't open it like they did. It was always melted closed so much it was like it wasn't supposed to open. Just gutted the damn thing like a fish.
1:40 "I guess they don't eat much"
*Laughs in 9000 calories*
**laughs in eating until full or satiated**
You still alive?
9000 calories?? too much. soldier in training needs around 4000 calories, combat effective, 6000 calories. anything above that is litterally impossible to burn away in a day. if american soldiers eats 9000 calories daily, they WILL get fat in a relatively short while.
@@frederikanby2634 it's a joke
@@frederikanby2634 Recent combat techniques involve using body fat as a flamethrower. It's gruesome, but effective, and the only downside is that you gotta eat lots to build up that fat in the first place.
The dudes: “cheers”
Subtitles: “I am from NK and I am a TH-camr”
I noticed that too😂😂
3 times throughout the video. Very odd subtitling and audio glitches in this one.
American Soldiers: Blech!!!! These MRE’s are disgusting!!!
North Koreans: Oooohhh!!! Much better than our rations!!!
Edit: I know everyone is saying they like MRE's and theyre not bad but after eating them with over 150 people at once (some being Ex-Military) 1 thing was in common: they suck.
also I can tell you as a picky eater the only thing in MRE's I'll eat are the crackers.
Actually, alot of American Soldiers like the MREs, it's just some taste bad, they didn't have the bad ones.
Most American Soldiers don’t say that about the MRE’s
It's more you just get tired of them after eating 1000 of them
@Anne I remember exactly which one you're referring to lol
@@ScipioMexicanus that especially
Have them react to the first medal of honour ever recorded!

Bruh ur right who says "No"?

When even North Korean soldiers say the portions are too small then you know there's a problem.
Those were not real US MRE's. They were from a store that sells hunting supplies.
There is probably more calories in each MRE then a NK soldier gets in a week.
and each soldier gets 3 MREs a day.
@Shinidoshi Well this is Kim we are talking about, he doesn't care about his people or his soldiers for that matter.
@Shinidoshi armies march on their stomachs. You know a country is doomed when it can't even afford to feed it's soldiers.
Sad but true
@@StarboyXL9 That would be true if North korea would actually aim to march into war. Which is clearly not the case. They just want to sustain themselves and there's no better guarantee than nukes and army which is good enough on papers to scare others from intervention.
They laid all the packages out and I was expecting to hear Steve say, "Let's get these on a tray... Nice!"
Mkey
Nice
@@AbirWasNotHere You're right, I was thinking of another TH-camr who says "Alright" for something he does...
“Nice hiss”
Nice
I love this channel, it makes me smile to see them enjoy American stuff that a lot of Americans take for granted nowadays, and hearing about them describing their time in their military makes me smile but also makes me sad...thank you for creating your channel Dimple, this is very wholesome and I’m enjoying it greatly
they are so nice, thank god they made it out of that hell and can finally be normal, young, funny guys who enjoy life
North Korean picks up US MRE
“Isn’t this too small?”
Me: confused screaming
Those aftermarket MRE's are small. The real US Military MRE's are more substantial.
Those MRE Star's are poor excuses for a real MRE.
Korean meal portions are usually big tho in both north and south korea, mainly cuz the food isnt high calorie, so they have loads of big bowls and tons of smaller plates and bowls laid out on a table, sometimes just to make it seem like they have loads of food even tho its not really as much
@@xXxSkyViperxXx I wouldn't say there are big meal portions in North Korea, because mass starvation is common and most average folk are malnourished. Only the lucky elite living in Pyongyang ever get decent sized meals. Also South Korea has plenty of calorie dense foods, especially since their main side dish is rice and the carb load of that is pretty substantial. Never mind all the food types they've imported and copied from American influence alone. South Korea isn't some Podunk back water of a third world country, they're pretty a sophisticated industrialized nation and they eat pretty well. Unlike their kin to the north.
you also seem to forget that the military is WAY WAY more active than citizens, which means they burn off way more calories and quickly too, which means they NEED substance, and larger portions... Dawyne 'the rock' Johnson eats 6000 calories a day... why? Because he works out so much that he needs extra calories... People don't realize this... it's not the food itself or the portions but it's the intake vs outtake of calories... AND your metabolism.
@Ahashdah ah yes, my mistake. Sorry about that!
ㅋㅋ 마시겠다
I have a strange love for MRES the process of eating them is so fun
Why r u here always
@Jorn Navarre I GOT SKITTLES, POUND CAKE, AND JALAPENO CHEESE! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME! :D
They aren't so fun to eat when you're on a Field Training Exercise (FTX); and only have 5 minutes to eat 2000 calories worth of stuff while getting yelled at to hurry up the entire time.
@Still Here Refresh my memory?
@Still Here Dafuq are you on about?
Is it just me or is there no audio in the middle?
I thought that was just me
Same I was just about to comment this. Like I switched on my phone to my laptop to check. It was still not working.
I was looking for this comment
Yeah it keeps breaking off the audio every once in a while, I thought it was my phone issue lol
"Let's get this out onto a tray. Nice!"
I was hoping to see a Steve reference!
Nice!
Awesome!
My husband was a US Army medic. They do make the MRE’s in a relatively broad range of tastes. He always enjoyed the chicken ones but most of the soldiers preferred the beef ones. It’s not considered ideal to eat them for more than 24 hours. They ARE calorie dense, and designed to make you not poo! If possible they ship in real food even if it’s just dropped off. The thing that a;ways got to me was the quality of the produce they sent them. My husband would bring home everyone’s fruit they didn’t eat (when on exercises) and it was like something you’d get from Harry and David’s.
i have to laugh when i hear harry and davids because i worked for the plant in medford oregon in the 70s. at the time they were only mail order and not that big, and when i see one of the stores in another state i just shake my head.
Had to laugh at this, in Marines MCT training, all you eat for 29 days is MRE's. My son just finished, said he was to the point he didn't even heat them, and his favorite was macaroni and cheese, because it came with Skittles.
@@KJ-kw7gh a moment of silence for you son’s bowels.
I’ve heard that first bowel movement after eating several MRE’s is legendary.
@@Heiryuu MREs were the cause of my first experience in my life with constipation. I felt like I lost ten pounds once I got things moving again. 😅
No wonder no one's pooing if they're not eating the fruit haha
Those aren't even actual US military MRE's, they're civilian versions. They lack some of the ingredients of the military version and are more 'generic'.
Somebody get these boys a British or French 24 hour ration, I'd love to see how they react to all the stuff that comes in one of those.
Specifically the ostrich ration :)
Same company, same menu, but packaged separately for public sale. Biggest difference is the packaging and some of the accessories, such as the caffeine infused gum I believe.
Main US MREs are hit-or-miss. But the 24hr First Strike rations are dope. But if you can get some US Arctic rations- those are amazing.
UK and German Army MRE have way more than USMC infantry MRE. We would trade or barter for the Tabasco sauce in Afghanistan
Italian mre has alcohol in it
As a korean this video made me so sad just to know that they weren’t fed a lot of food
Even in the military
When they mixed the grape drink mix, it took me back to my Navy days. We used to call the stuff "bug juice." ;-)
I used to clean the brass drains on the deck of my ship with bug juice powder. Nice metal polish.

@@bigimskiweisenheimer8325 but what did it do to our guts?

Was that before or after you slipped the hooch into it? Just asking for future deployments.
Would love to see these guys experience a traditional 4th of July cookout, BBQ, beers, apple pie, the whole 9yards!
Can we get these fine gentleman some authentic US BBQ from Texas, Memphis and the Carolinas and see which they prefer? I can assure you that there are US restaurants stateside or even GIs stationed in RoK who will assist.
YESSS
Having them meet actual US soldiers would be a great video.
Yes please. I hope they get these guys some good food.
I've had American BBQ in other parts of the world, and it's net really the same. Some of it is really good, but it doesn't taste as good as real Southern BBQ. I'm pretty sure it has a lot to do with the types of wood they smoke it in.
Also, brisket takes like 12 hours to smoke, and I'm not sure any American GIs will have the time or equipment to do it.
Why give them pretender BBQ, when you could give them the real deal, KC BBQ.
These guys are awesome. I'm glad they are safe and in a better place. Peace and love to the Korean Peninsula ✌🏼
I love how this young man gives thanks for his meal before eating the entree. Of an MRE. His mother should be proud.
Yep
@Maury Serrano-Hernandez @Maury Serrano-Hernandez if she were dead, then he wouldn't not have the need to wear his sunglasses anymore. Most likely his family is still alive because since he have sunglasses on he can't be identified by North Korean soldiers to punish his family for his defecting
I love these two. Please keep these two coming with their reactions.
PS the long hair guy should not cut his hair.
Agree, hes cute!
It would be great to see them try American soul food. Fried chicken, mac and cheese, collard greens, corn bread, and candied yams.
Ugh! You just made me hungry!!! :)
Don't forget the fried catfish!
You're getting me hungry lol 😋🍗🍝🍜🍺🍻
I am a US Army vet and was deployed on a rotation to Korea. I had the chance to work with Korean Combat Engineers for a humanitarian mission. I exchanged MREs with a Korean lieutenant and showed each other how to prepare the MREs. The Korean MREs were AMAZING and the Korean lieutenant absolutely hated ours 😂
TRY AN AMERICAN THANKSGIVING SPREAD.
In my house, every person and guest gets their OWN PIE. That's right. And entire pie, just for them. They take home the leftovers.
I can and have eaten a whole pie to myself. But only during pie season. Lol
That is not an authentic military MRE! That is an aftermarket brand the military does not use that brand. Only components.
Yeah I was a bit confused watching it. I recognized a lot of the components but didn’t see as much as I expected.
I came to say the same
Yea... It seemed too empty
Yea! Where was the Tabasco sauce! Also, those flavors are not even our ;
They probably can't get real MRES.
And thus marks the first time someone from another country said "I guess Americans don't eat much."
Its awesome that they have a sense of humor. I wish them peace and happiness in their lives.

P.S in the "middle" of combat something called a first strike ration is eaten.
“Looks like chicken”
package: TUSCAN BEEF
I'm an Old-timer. Still ate C-Rats when I joined. I remember when they first started the transitions to the MREs.
There was a Beef patty, a Chicken patty and if you were truly unlucky Spaghetti! That they still made to somehow look like a patty!
This was also before they came out with the heat-packs so every meal was cold unless you were in a position where you could get hot water.
The C-Rats you punched a hole or 2 in the main meal with your trusty P-38, stuck it back in the box and set it on fire. Heated to perfection!
And don't get me started on the fights that would break out over a Pound cake and Fruit cocktail! I saw many a guy get cut over the syrup alone!
Good time! Good times......
I never had C-rats, but I do remember when only cold climates were issued the "Arctic" heater meals. Now they all have heaters.
The way he asked him to open the package was so adorable😭😭

nice hiss
@@-EchoesIntoEternity- im pretty sure the 182o ration would taste better than nk mre

Awww 😂😭
fr haha
The reason why the US MREs are in small portion is because they don’t want to overload the solider. Because if you are in a battle and you eat to much your nerves would cause you to throwup,
If only that was a real US MRE. There’s a lot more food in the Real MRE than whatever they got 😬🤣
Yea, I saw the packaging of the main dish and realized it was the Civil relief MRE for devastated families, the main ones usually get the main, 2-3 sides, a dessert of some kind, a electorlite and or protein drink, much more than what this was
US military grade MREs aren't all that easy to get usually, especially not overseas.
Definitely not the real military mres
@@countryclubbin1016 they're the civil relief ones for families that lost everything due to natural disasters. For the regular soldier, it isn't enough calories, but for a child who is hungry and the average adult, it is sufficient enough
@@natsume-hime2473 Mremountain is selling for example the FSR-s. Also ebay exists but it's a high risk, high reward kind of thing there. I'm sure that there are some military shops that sell it.

I would love for them to try authentic mexican food. I feel it's the perfect spice cousin to korean food.
I remember living off of these after Hurricane Katrina. I hated them all, but still oddly crave that odd powdered vanilla milk shake.....
I've mentioned it in a prior video, and hopefully they are already working on it, but the Chapman first Medal of Honor recorded video would be great for these guys.
Yes. As difficult as it is to watch it is intensely moving.

GET THESE MEN SOME BBQ RIBS!!!
no one here talking about the problems their gut is about to have.
Yup, gonna 💩 a brick.
Yeah. Someone better be drinking a gallon of water....maybe that is why they went hunter brand not army?
This is easily one of my new favorite channels seeing other soldiers try out our things. Their comments being a smile to my face. They're genuinely amazing people on this channel. May God bless them & keep them safe.
If you want good food try American soul food and American bbq
Yep! :)
Have them react to the a-10 thunderbolt please
Flying home with 1 ½ wings, one engine, no hydraulics, a football sized hole in your tail, 378 Bullet Holes, No Flaps And No Speed Brakes.
A-10 be like: This is fine.
I love MRE’s. Both of my brothers were solders and would always bring me home many. I’d eat them up quick.
"I usually drink caramel macchiatos"
You sure have expensive taste for a North Korean foot soldier 😆
Oh mercy, you aren't supposed to drink the water heater water. You put the food pouch in with the water so it gets hot, then remove it, open it, and eat it. Drinking the water is probably bad for you.
Oh god no they really drank it??? I haven’t gotten to that part yet but i did notice they way overfilled them and left them empty. Wow. I don’t understand why they don’t get people who know what’s up to help them! And yeah they’re pouring it in cups now! Good god! 🤦♂️
I don't think they drank it....I'm sure they had multiple glasses of water ready.
And they put too much water that's why it didn't got that much heat
@Peter Parkerman well it's not like if you boiled your pee that water well be safe to drink
@Peter Parkerman Chill out my guy, no need to call anyone a moron
I think there is nothing more classic American like a well marinated t-bone.
I learned to love mres on deployments. Many will say they suck, but they saved my life. You can also be creative with them adding other ingredients. I'll never say a negative word regarding them. These two guys are being real!
My HEART goes out to these guys, God Bless YOU!
You guys really need to get an American ex-G.I. who can cook as an advisor to your videos....
Such nice guys, could NEVER imagine these as the ENEMY....
@Jon Luci true...
I was very fortunate to be a US Navy Sailor back in 1978 thru 2002..Being on Ships we ate Chef prepared chow from the Galley..I remember eating MRE's in jungle training a few times only
I LOVE these two guys! I just found your channel. I have been binge watching videos all day! Hello from America!
A5 wagyu..they earned it.
Fly them to Japan and have it teppanyaki
Kobe beef from cows that were fed beer like in Mr. Baseball.
Best suggestion yet.
1++ Hanwoo beef
Make it happen Dimple.
Id love to just hang out and exchange stories with these guys.
Bruh This is the most respect i'd ever witnessed an mre been given.
I'm very happy that both of you are making a good transition...There is still much to learn I think. Thank you for the videos of your impressions and keeping an open mind... Other than the advanced high tech weaponry and machines, I think you would be surprised at how different service members are treated compared to NK. My experience in the US Army was some of the best times in my life....I went to different training schools and learned so many different skills, opportunities to go to other countries, and after service time, I received a low-cost education and got so many veteran's benefits. Military life isn't for everyone, but I was proud to serve and I believe I was treated more than well. Now please go try some American BBQ (Texas, Louisana, Kentucky, so many styles to choose from!)
