However, weapons handling aside, this photo really illustrates nicely the role of the American soldier as liberator and protector in the last century as well as the attitudes towards him of those he liberated.

Edited a WWII 101st vet interview for the GCA
Journal, he related a story where a guy coming off guard duty woke his relief by prodding him with the barrel of his grease gun... it went off and emptied the magazine into the guy's stomach, killing him. The vet said nobody talked to the shooter for the rest of the war.

How sad. He was most likely tormented by that the rest of his days.
