In Reply to: Think that's bad? See Malick's "The Thin Red Line." War made boring, though posted by tinear on March 28, 2007 at 15:59:33:
I can assure you that war IS boring, for all its victims, usually far more boring than training for it can be. Even in anti-insurgency wars.Mostly you wait and wait and wait, and then suddenly, ... nothing happens! Even moving through country on operations is MOSTLY boring unless your sub-unit's on point, or your a pure grunt out on the edge.
You can get a staff job, and plan abit and mostly drink, and drink, and pocket piss, and drink and pocket piss, etc!
Very very occasionally it gets very noisy and scary, and crazy, for a few minutes, maybe an hour or so max, and then you wait, and wait, and wait!
there's even a song about it.
"why are we waiting,
waiting, waiting, waiting,
Oh why-y are we waiting
waiting, #$@&*@G, waiting'etc.
The other thing about war is - it is the quickest way yet found of mass destruction of wealth and human capacity!
War isn't fun or exciting, it's just a tragedy.
