Have you ever noticed "How United States of America defeated the Talibans last time? It's because they have soldiers and military technology inventers that sacrifice both life and sleep time. I wanted to mention Snipers/spotters as another hero. I will talk about a sniper aka, the Reaper. He killed 33 Talibans in 3 months time. His name is Nicholas Irving. As a sniper you would know the gun is very important to you.
So these are the reasons why soldiers love their Guns more than their wife. First, guns are more important because it could save the soldiers in the war by maintaining their gun would keep it accurate and clean. Secondly, the gun wouldn't cuss at them like their wives because the gun is your slave, on the other hand your wife would act like a princess. Third, you have to waste money on the things that your wife love but you don't in comparison the gun wouldn't ask for any money. Fourth, you have to take care of your wife when they are sick or pregnant and even their feelings. You also have to give them your time. Wives "why don't instead you let them stay at their work place and take care of the gun?" Lastly, guns are like our best friend please share my time with them.
