I would have to say that our "NOW" friends and allies are not wanting to surprise attack us on a Sunday morning anytime in the near future. Yes I am very sorry for what took place to end the situation with the Japanese but this is how I look at it. We didn't start the conflict and for them to do it the way they did it was up to us to stop it. According to the people who were in the know at the time the bombs that were dropped actually saved many lives in the long run, ours and theirs. Sure people died that maybe should not have but that also happened on both sides. As has been said for thousands of years "WAR IS A BITCH"!!! I am not a war monger actually it's one of the few things I **** but you serve your country if you are a soldier. Do what you are ordered to do and probably suffer the consequences the rest of your life but it's how it works.
The reason for me posting this is for everyone to realize it is not a personal thing that a soldier has to do it is what you are trained for. I was trained by the Army to be a killer, to kill anyone who threatens the well being of my fellow soldier, my buddy with no regards to my own safety.
For those who think i'm blowing smoke just talk to another
soldier that trained during war time and see what they tell you. How about this find and old Vietnam Vet and ask him if you have the nerve! What i'm about to write has nothing to do with me saying what Japan did was right but the pilots of those plans "kamikaze" as they are called were following orders, simple as that. They new when heading out on their mission there would be no return, most had enough fuel to get to their target and start a big fire and that's it. Hero's in my eye's, NO, but dedicated to their mission and country, absolutely!!
