Thanks for this honnest answer. I guess it takes some guts to be open about this. Also, I wouldn't be a soldier myself, but I am aware that war is sometimes necessary and I have a lot of respect for the people who do the job on the ground.

As far as I understand modern millitary training, they teach recruits to kill the enemy without consciously thinking about it at the moment. They do this because studies showed that most people aren't able to kill other people, so basically they trick people into killing. What is your experience? Is there some truth in this and if so, how do you feel about it afterwards?
