According to a history channel show I saw, during his March to the Sea General Sherman used enemy prisoners to clear minefields by having them walk in front of his men.

We don’t do that anymore.

Is it too much to hope that we can at least try to behave a little more civil with each war?

the US armed forces are the most civil killers in the world…idealism stops sooner or later when lives are at stake
