Being a soldier is tough. Apart from being away from their families, soldiers also have to risk their lives just to keep everyone in the country safe. They have to miss important family celebrations and even their childrenโs milestones. At times, they may need to stop talking to their loved ones while they are away for deployment.
Despite that, our soldiers are still able to see the positive side of things. They are able to cope with their situations by relying on their fellow soldiers and their awesome sense of humor.
This collection perfectly highlights what soldiers do to have fun during their days off.
1. Taking awesome photos
This soldier doesnโt just know how to have fun. Based on this photo, heโs quite good at at taking photos, too.
2. Having each otherโs back
Protecting each other and having each otherโs back doesnโt only apply to wars. Itโs also applicable during their free time when they want to have fun.
3. A little game
Thereโs probably nothing better than playing some competitive games during oneโs day off. Itโs not just a way to have fun, but it can also serve as an exciting way to work those muscles and teamwork.
4. In Afghanistan
A loved one was worried about how his cousin was doing in Afghanistan. This was the photo she received. Itโs safe to say that this soldier is looking good on his deployment.
5. Being resourceful
Soldiers celebrate Christmas, too. However, since they donโt have the usual holiday decorations, they have to be resourceful. Looking at this Christmas tree, Iโd say that they nailed it.
6. When your group is a Bieber fan
This group has an awesome sense of humor. Who would have thought that theyโre loyal Justin Bieber fans?
7. Testing the new pants
This soldier tried testing the new fire-resistant
pants. Looking at his reaction, I donโt think it was what he expected.
8. A friendly race
Soldiers are quite competitive. Even if itโs just a game, theyโll still give their best.
9. Showing affection
This is one way to show affection without running the risk of getting infected. And yes, it looks extremely awkward.
10. Human missiles
I know soldiers are brave. I just didnโt expect them to be this brave. Most people would find the idea of getting inside that machine intimidating.
11. What being a team means
One watches over the area while the other one irons out uniforms. Thatโs teamwork.
12. Bubbles and more bubbles
Kids arenโt the only ones who enjoy blowing out bubbles. Itโs a fun activity even for soldiers.
13. That tiny area
Iโm not sure if that soldier was able to spot that tiny area of grass. Itโs just nearly the size of his foot.
14. Multiple guns
If youโve seen figures of Hindu deities, youโd agree that this team nailed the look. Those guns replicate the deitiesโ hands.
15. Harry Potter inspired
Iโm not sure how these two soldiers were able to do this. Whether itโs a trick or just excellent photo editing skills, theyโve done an awesome job. Harry Potter fans must be proud of them.
16. A huge trap
I know soldiers can make traps really well. Despite that, seeing them make a mousetrap this size is still quite impressive.
17. At the park
Who wouldnโt have fun at the park? Even soldiers know that itโs the best place to have fun.
18. Somethingโs not right
I guess this soldier is just channeling his dream of becoming an archer. The way heโs holding his gun, Iโd say that heโs got the basic form right.
19. Fun!
Heโs having a great time, no doubt about that. The way heโs stretching out his arms and the way heโs smiling, heโs clearly enjoying that ride down the staircase.
20. Robots
It must be fun to see robots and soldiers working together. Itโs like an epic scene from an action movie. This, however, looks like a scene from a kidโs movie.
21. Perfect camouflage
Apparently, a soldierโs uniform isnโt just easy to conceal in the wild. It also offers an excellent way to become invisible on the sofa.
22. That unicorn
I guess unicorns somehow change in form when they are deployed. This one has a different color and lacks magical powers.
23. Practicing
Poor animal. I hope that soldier wasnโt putting all of his weight on its back. It looks little for him.
24. Partners
Dogs are excellent partners for soldiers because of they of their loyalty and ability to trust. They will do anything for their partners, including acting silly for the camera.
25. Just a can of soda
Sodas can provide an instant boost in energy because of their sugar content. And as it turns out, they can also provide happiness. Just look at that smile!
26. Those pink shoes
Who would have thought that soldiers would look good on pink shoes? And who would have thought that theyโd be proud and happy to be seen wearing them? I have never seen happier soldiers than this group.
27. Just trying to fly
No matter how serious the situation is, soldiers always find a way to have fun. This one, for example, was demonstrating how he can make himself fly with that cape.
28. Comedy
This could pass as a comedy skit. Itโs both creative and funny. If they could turn this into a video, itโd definitely be funnier.
29. When youโre trying to hide
On your days off, you prefer to hide away and not be seen by both the enemies and your comrades. Unfortunately for this soldier, that animal has an excellent sense of recognition.
30. A different way of using the toilet
We all know that soldiers are strong. I just didnโt know that they can actually pee like this.
