I don't know what to do. I keep getting this itching urge to get rid of everything I own.

But then again, if you're a minimalist, adding more things (like books) to your collection would just deter you from achieving Nirvana, like the Buddhists do.
Also, I wanted to thank you for shattering my preconception that the military brainwashes its soldiers into devaluing human life and life in general. It's good to know that there are soldiers out there who wouldn't want to harm a fly... or a spider. Take care, man.
