7 Nov 2024 Garand Picture of the Day

It makes me wonder and this is probably a dumb question but do they get the troops used to seeing things like that via pictures during training up until combat? Are soldiers repetitively exposed to graphic pictures of say maybe the end results of some weapons they are training to use? I ask this question because it seems like the higher command would want to get the soldiers used to seeing Carnage with a less likely result of someone freezing up at the site of it because I am sure that would take a lot of getting used to to see that kind of thing happening around you and still pushing forward completing your mission. The bravery of those soldiers is unmeasurable. I guess what I am asking is, is it normal procedure during training for military personnel to be exposed to to graphic images to get used to combat conditions in the future? Cuz if so, I could easily see how some soldiers could get PTSD without even seeing combat. I'm like that in a way with gory things I saw in my youth on a foreign film in those things have still stuck with me to this day. But I am the type that does not like to see or watch Gore and that's probably why because of what I've seen when I was young
