Officers on the other site love to tell war stories with righteous indignation about how they have been sent to the edge of the empire and took fire blah blah blah
In reality they are just admitting that when they face fear or danger they believe the rules no longer apply. They are not special.

In war, in the heat of the moment, when man is at his most primal and barbaric, it's an easy slippery slope to war crimes and atrocities. Thats why officers exist--commissioned and noncommissioned.
Educated and trained, they are there to control chaos and the application of violence.

Yes, Congress/Supreme Court did not think this through to the future. Trump is a sponge for ass kissing and bribes. Enough is never enough for praise and grift. Plus Once you disagree with him, you are on the retribution list.
