Repost** jdn6531Rocking my newest #lftvet graphic t-shirt. Being apart of something soo big and soo important adds that much more to my everyday purpose. Supporting my brothers and sisters with PTSD couldn't be more important to me. These men and women have sacrificed their sanity and soo much more so "we" as an America can be FREE. Free to do as we please and be who we want to be. Something as simple as buying a shirt to show your support goes soo much farther than you could imagine. It means the world to Us Veterans. Get yours today @lftvet. Use my promo code: jn6531 for your discount. #motivate #dedicate #legday #lftvet #supportvetswithptsd #usmc #usmcvet #oefvet #america #supportourtroops #neverforget #standforsomething #ptsd #goldsgymgalleria #goldsgymmanchester #golds #militarymuscle

99 problems, but my love for Afghanistan ain’t one ☝️. I may tell some tough Afghanistan 🇦🇫 stories some days in the future, but not today. My new homey and I were doing the math. He says he was in the 4th or 5th grade in Kabul the year I flew a fine special mission in Kabul. He’s as cool a cucumber 🥒 as they come, and I love me some damn Afghan Brotherhood. Always and forever. #afghan #afghani #afghanistan🇦🇫 #afghanistani #afghanistanpics #afghanistan #afghanistanyouneversee #afghanistanhistory #afghanistaninmyheart #afghanistanveteran #operationenduringfreedom #oef #oefvet #oefveteran (at Kabul, Afghanistan)

#Repost @evenoneistoomany (@get_repost) ・・・ One thing harder than being depressed is pretending you're not. Even harder is to reach out. But to SPEAK OUT? That takes more fucking courage than most people will ever have. . You are never alone brother. I will always be with you, even if no one else is. Do not ever give up, the world cannot turn and the Sun cannot shine without men like you. . regranned from @brownkidc I was diagnosed with depression/PTSD. Social media is always filled with smiles or jokes. Not many people post the real them or what they go through. You may read this and say "you have so much to be happy about" which I agree I do. I always have these down periods where I feel as if I'm in quicksand and every thing I do, I'm force deeper into this darkness or that I can't breath or my eyes are heavy and I miss the world around me.. Once I'm back into the swing of things I tell myself "Woah, look at the beauty that surrounds you.. let's not get that low again.." . Then I go back and I'm deeper than last time.. I always feel I'm alone, but I know a lot of you on here are with me. I thought paying off my debt would help but it isn't money, it isn't a lack of material, it's what I and many other Service members have experienced. At times, the thought of being dead sounds nice. . Then I think of the brothers we lost and how they'd bitch slap me for thinking that... Why did we live? Why didn't we get clapped by that rogue Howitzer round? Why did they wait to ambush our compound until that day but missing us by hours? I'm here for a reason. We all are. The universe is in us. We must not let these dark thoughts take us over as men and women. Stay strong my friends and my brothers. I love you all. .

If you joined the Marines after 2010, go to page 241 of your Guidebook. Yeah, I took that. Now that you know that you have at least ONE book I had something to do with, go read my Smokepit Fairytales series. It’s full of Lance Crimminal jackassery, aliens, sex, violence, and a never ending supply of cigarettes, rum, or ammunition. Semper simper. #shamelessselfpromotion #author #writer #photographer #marines #usmc #devildog #leatherneck #afghanvet #oefvet #javelin #rocketlauncher #bazooka #afghanistan #veteran #veteranauthor #combatcamera #scifiauthor #militarybooks #sunday #bootcamp #recruittraining #guidebook https://www.instagram.com/p/CBt_O5LJ33K/?igshid=14gi3prlcc9ra

Most photos with throwaway brand no clue during OEF 1.5 & 2. This is about half of all the desert photos I got. 🙈 Better stick to telling true tales. And occasionally taking my shirt off to draw attention to hard topics. Or not. But a Gun Pilot’s gonna bare soul. It’s late for a story now, but I’ll say I was born a Raider, then foster homed with BlueMax, that went to war with a Deathstalker named Jesus. And I didn’t like the Backstreet Boy Call Sign. I wish you all a blessed 4th in the US or elsewhere, as I’ve spent them there. The refuge in the video is near my cousin Priscilla’s place, who’s born on the 4th of July. Where I’m at now. @combataviator @bvrdesign @alexeyviper @jaato_news #apachehelicopter #gunpilot #oefvet

My book Smokepit Fairytales is free on kindle until Wednesday. You don’t have to read it by then, you can just download it and save it for later. And if you don’t have a kindle, the app is free for your phone. You can just grab it and tuck it away until you need it. Grab it while you can! Also, thanks @themarinerapper for putting the book in a video! Go check out his music. . Author bio: Tripp, who sexually identifies as an American twin-engine attack helicopter, was genetically engineered in a laboratory in Florida. He cut himself from the womb with a rotary blade so he could put veteran's day on his birth certificate and forever have the day off work. He then ran away to be raised by badgers at the gates of Tartarus. After living by the mantra "If it bleeds, we can kill it," and watching the Battle of Fallujah on TV he promptly joined the Marine Corps as a combat cameraman so he could steal the souls of those killed by the Marines he was with. He deployed to Afghanistan with 2/7 and ¾ in '08, and '09-'10 respectively, then went on a couple of MEUs so he could drink on the ocean and anger sailors by calling their ship a "boat." Tripp spent his decade in the Corps drinking rum, crushing the hopes and dreams of mortals, and chain smoking. He has multiple awards for books he hasn't even written, once deadlifted a battleship, outwitted a sphinx, knows Vicky's secret (it's that she has a penis), is an award winning photographer, and at all times has been the best guitar player in the barracks. Did I mention he's handsome and has a glorious mustache? He's a great storyteller, specializing in fairytales and bullsh*t. About the only thing he doesn't have is a TV show based on his books (looking at you Netflix.) #kindlebooks #freebook #veteranauthor #scifibook #military #militaryscifi #spaceopera #marines #marinevet #combatvet #usmc #navy #sailors #oefvet #army #soldiers #spaceforce #love #war #aliens #devildogs #leathernecks #smoking #smokepit #smokepitfairytales #warstory #seastories https://www.instagram.com/p/B_h-EhnAI4C/?igshid=1n5zzyxmpgro3

I have TWO Warchests left and I won’t be able to make any more until after the world decides to quit being stupid and open back up, so if you want one, I suggest grabbing it now. Inside are signed copies of all six of my books, a patch, some cards and stickers, as well as a lifetime membership to my mailing list that gets you post cards with my art and news or jokes. An adventure tale for our times, the author combines real world events and supernatural elements in the style of a classical epic to tell a sometimes snarky, sometimes uproarious, and very poignant modern tale. Meet Hank Allensworth and Wilson Evans in a modern reflection of the Epic of Gilgamesh. An epic bromance between a Marine and his corpsman running around Oceanside, California . Degenerate Lance Corporals who have recently returned from Afghanistan, spending most of their time drunk at The Purple Church. One night while they're out drinking they are called back to base and the battalion is put on stand by because during the conflict with ISIS, the Islamic Republic of Iran decided to end the proxy war and get involved themselves. Soon after, Hank and Doc go with the regiment to keep the Iranians from crossing the Euphrates. The war kicks off and the Marines push across Iraq and into Iran. Hank and Doc both are wounded and sent home. The rest of the story they deal with survivor's guilt, alcoholism, PTSD, covering up for a murder, and trying to manage deteriorating love lives. I don't know if I could say there's any deeper meaning than gratuitous sex and violence, but I can guarantee you that if you've spent more than three days in an infantry battalion you will love these books.

You should read my novel series Smokepit Fairytales. Why? Because it’s the best book series that’s ever been written. Told from the point of view of a pissed off Marine (as its authored by one) this fiction explores combat, loss, love, brotherhood, giant russian robots, hot green alien women, murder, piracy, political espionage, and endless violence, rum and cokes, and sex with aliens. You know when you’re in the Smokepit and your buddy tells you about a story and you say “that’s cool, BUT it’d be cool if...” BUT NOTHING! There is no if on this on, this IS it! Get’m on amazon, and if you have a kindle subscription, they’re free to read. Also thanks @hangovercasual for the shirt. SEMPER! #books #readmore #oefvet #veteran #crazystory #marines #usmc #navy #sailors #corpsmen #army #soldiers #spaceforce #airforce #military #militaryscifi #militaryfiction #combatcamera #infantry #marineveteran #smokepit #seastories #scifibooks #aliens #guns https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Hx-IxgSgl/?igshid=136pkhjz5p5s0
