I'd have wanted in on one of the world wars. Full credit to everyone who served

I don't know anything about the honour of that war or the bullying that went on, but yea, wouldnt want to have served there over the comical butt whoopings of modern desert wars

I was curious about your term, "kill-ratio extravaganza". That seems a term particularly apt for Vietnam. It was a war of attrition per Westmoreland's plan. It wasn't particularly about taking and holding territory as WWII was. Some say that was one of the major reasons the US was unsuccessful (I'm not going to say "lost" because it was more of a forfeit).
