F**k that...

I don't think I could have done it. It makes you realise how scary it must have been seeing stuff like that on a daily basis.

If I was in WW2 I think I would much prefer to be a pilot over a foot soldier or in a tank.

I think it would seem to me that in a combat zone, any sense of control would be primarily an illusion. It all seems quite random. Obviously I've not been in such a situation and am just going off BoP and OpFP: DR experience. Maybe Gunny could contribute an opinion more grounded in reality...?

But I know what you're saying - I would like to feel as much in control of my fate as possible.
