Fast Eater
In the military, people need to eat their meals as soon as they possibly could. Why? Well, soldiers often have better things to do and they need to go back to their post right away, especially in war zones. Yup, if you have a loved one returning from the army, don’t expect them to dawdle about the dinner table!

Military Jargon
Movies and video games often show soldiers saying “negative”, “affirmative”, “roger”, and the like. It’s actually rather accurate and it is not surprising to hear people speak like this even after service. The military comes with its own language and it’s hard to revert to plain English later on.
