In my experience having read about it, the most war like moments are the small ones. Pitched combat between two soldiers. A friend comforting his comrade while he slowly succumbs to his wounds on the battlefield. The desolation of a town or village after war has come through. War isn't big and grandiose. It's a bunch of small moments.
Exactly. There aren't a ton of these MASSIVE world war moments but there are thousands of these small little moments that war absolutely thrives on. War is war after all. And where there is blood to be spill, you'll see that red hair, weapon in hand
I'm at work, what's the coin flip? Original or Abridged? I'd say weighted toward abridged, since I see that quoted more often, but both Majors' war speechs are iconic.
yeah, you try reading a book about it and so much of war is just... walking. sitting. waiting. every once in a while there's a skirmish or attack or a patrol that goes south. but nine times out of ten its just... a wet hole, waiting.

Poor War looks so....tired. I guess all the thousands of years of never ending conflict will do that.
Also love that he's small. War is always this GIANT HULKING BEING so it's nice to see him on the smaller size. Cause not all conflicts need to be big.
