Its really interesting shit about human's natural aversion to killing and he goes all the way back to Roman times, to find how commanders would complain about the difficulty in training legionarres to stab rather than slash
Interesting fact. 25% of pilots in WW2 were responsible for 75% of kills
Nam was one of the first wars where America as an example really perfected the ability of training conscripts to actually shoot at bad guys
Yeah, in the American civil war, all the way back to the Napoleonic war, it was called "Bullet wind syndrome"
They thought it was caused by the shock of almost being shot
Yeah up until Cold War times, a unit was usually based around a group of guys assisting the one person willing to actually kill
The real causes didnt come out until the first world war.
WW1 was where they actually began to really figure out that it was like only a quarter of guys actually shooting at their targets lol
Wow.
It talks about Civil War too with a specific battle I cant recall where they found thousands of routed soldiers rifles left behind unfired
I'd highly recommend
Tim O'brien talks about them napalming villages of innocent people to clear out enemy combatants and shooting dogs etc
By the end, he said he was numb emotionally.
Yeah Nam was nut
nuts*
Walking through the wreckage with dead children.
And it really proves wrong the way people pretend our zionist army could stop the Islamic extremists if we were just more brutal
"Well if we just killed em all and bombed their villages, I bet they'd stop."
Didnt work in Nam fucker
He eventually went back to vietnam like 20 years later, brought his daughter with him.
