re: #399 Sergey Romanov

That just goes to show that there really were no good guys in that war, which doesn’t mean there weren’t the worst.

One of the reasons I greatly respect Chuck Yeager is that he flatly stated that he committed what he considered war crimes— that he went on missions with a brief to hit anything that moved, and that he did it. He didn’t like it, he doesn’t make any excuses for having done it. I’d like him better if he’d refused, but, having done it, I’m glad he was honest about it and that he called them war crimes.
