I got into an actual argument at the VA with a Marine who told me, TO MY FACE, that I didn't have a "real job" in the military WHILE I WAS WEARING A SEABEE SHIRT. Meaning: My unit BUILT everything the Marines used in the field. I was a welder for god's sake.

And it's been worse since I've been out "What? you're a trained welder? That can't be right, you're a GIRL."

The father of a friend of mine got the "flash" pretty bad during the rush to build the Liberty ships. He regained his sight, but for weeks they didn't know if it would come back.
