There is no such thing as safe army or safer environment in its training , there can never be ...unless , you expect enemy forces to be a polite lot who ask you permission , ‘ May I kill you Sir ?’ ....army are just that - a trained killing machines who must fight under any conditions foreseeable or unforseable...and soldiers are expected to die the moment they signed on , and death is merely casualty in warfare and the trick is to reduce the number but never death per ce
in many worldwide regiments deaths to its soldiers are treated with honour though mourned , every family of regular knows that someday their sons and fathers will return in body bags with their national flags wrapped but unlike our fucking SAF , their army takes care of their fallen soldiers families ,sorry ! The government does that such as pension for life to widows and mothers , free education to the fallen soldiers children and such
the real soldiers I knew were Scottish regiments such the fusiliers or R Guards , their men regularly slip among the longhouse In Kalimantan in the night and slit the throats of one or two at night , so the whole village wakes up terrified the next morning , how many of our NS boys even dare to slit the throats of chickens for dinner ? Even I did that in my days because chickens were sold life in our markets
Our SAF was created in the likes of IAF , but every Israelis knows where they stand should they even lose a battle whreas our SAF only knows where is the best chicken rice sold here and across the causeway
that being said , our armed forces are merely an illusion , an illusion created to do war dances but never to go to a war , Yes ! Dances we can very well do and that too safely but to war you must go mentally prepared to die
