Yes, you can, actually. Those of us with past military experience are rather proud of that fact. What you probably never understood is that we are a true brotherhood, your father among us. I don't know when or where he served, but he was one of us as surely as the man who stands next to us in the ranks. If he refused to talk about his time in the army there was probably a bloody good reason for it, one which you never figured out. I'm sorry for that, but I understand your frustration - sometimes only another army guy can draw out another veteran.
If you want to leave, so be it. If you want to stay, you're welcome. Just read through this thread again and think about it.
