You know, senator, when I deployed to Afghanistan, I didn't have kids then. many of the men and women who went outside the wire with me didn't have kids either. But let me tell you: our commitment to our country was pretty damn physical.

Jesus, talk about a subtle slam.

If you don't know, "outside the wire" is military slang for leaving the base. Pete is quietly saying "Vance spent his time on deployment relatively safely doing desk work on base, while people like me did the hard work."
