Then you were very lucky.

Met a guy last week who found himself next to two different IEDs while in Afghanistan and then Iraq. He had far more scars to show for it than I ever did as a desk jockey.

Obviously war time duty in a warzone is far more dangerous. I'm not trying to imply that sitting at a desk is more dangerous than fighting in a war. I'm saying that physical labor is better for your body than sitting on your ass.
