I wasn't sure who I could trust

because part of it was I
also had additional layers

on top of my PTSD because of my MST,

and also because of the
moral injury that I received

from my chain of command.

I went to chaplain services
when I was on board ship,

and they were just kinda like,

"Oh, you should be happy

"because, oh, this ensign
was a hot looking ensign

"and so you should be happy

"that you're messing around with her."

And I was all like really?

That's coming from a chaplain, you know?

And I understand we're a military culture,

but still I'm seeking you
out as my spiritual leader.
