I don’t feel the comradery I was expecting in the army

Don’t get me wrong there’s cool dudes I would call friends in the army we go out drink have fun and all. But I’m on leave rn and it just reminded me how much closer I am and how much more fun I have with my hometown friends. It’s rly making me miss civilian life and I just wish I was able to be as close to people in the army as I am with my hometown boys. Is anyone else experiencing this or have any advice?

I lost my wallet and cac last 2 weeks of deployment

This is my first unit and I’ve been doing great up until this situation I have rarely been smoked I have heard from team leaders my chain of command has been praising me but now I lost my wallet with cac 2 weeks before the end of deployment. Since it’s a deployment my squad leader is saying I’ll most likely be getting an article 15 for this situation once he pushes it up. I also am now missing out on summer block leave after this deployment. Im 1 month away from pfc and at this point I’m on the verge of breaking down and losing it everything that can go wrong seems to be going wrong. Any advice?
Update we did hands across America and found it I’m taking my section out to lunch tmrw since I feel bad lol
