Ain't seen hell 'til you been to Hozimeen III. Swear there wasn't no safe place on the whole rock. Three years of shit and blood, felt like three decades. At night the vhetkaang struck fast, dragged men out of the camps and done skinned them alive, at daylight they was in the trees, the bushes, in the damn ground. We shot them, hacked them, put them to the flamethrowers, their monocule needle rounds done turned good men into mush. So many good men. All the mud and dirt, it was traps and mines, poisoned frag shit. Ol' Billy got some to his back, took him five days to die. Sarge would've ended him, the medics thought they could still save. Three years. Burned half the fucking planet. They says you can't smell radiation, but when we was gettin' on the lifters back to the fleet, and them mushroom clouds lit up the horizon, I do swear on my dear momma, could smell them half-avian sons of bitches disintegrating in the gamma-wash, I did.

[@kabced]

Here I come fixin peoples mistakes on the Lyrics. Sleek and clean, the death machines, stand ready on the decks. Inside them men who fight in them, run through their final checks. Absorbed in it, the pilots sit, their lives are moved by hate. For those that fly make others die and never touch their face. He just flies the bomber, he never sees their eyes when the hell comes down. He just flies the bomber. Inbound trip without a slip, shuttle drops them free. They set the track for their attack, the backup comms agree. Now trim the jet, and don't forget, to plot in the return. It's time to go, for down below, the planet that must burn. He just flies the bomber, he never sees their eyes when the hell comes down. He just flies the bomber. Now make the run, so quick it's done, and death screams towards the ground. But moving fast, and so far past, they never hear the sound. A final turn is from the stern, they watch the mushrooms grow. They fill the night with deadly light, and kill the world below. He just flies the bomber, he never sees their eyes when the hell comes down. He just flies the bomber. Back aboard the shuttle, there'll be time enough to think what they have done. They'll find their aneseptic war, won't leave them with the place that they can run. Nowhere to run. And there's no deep untroubled sleep, for one with such a debt. Guilt alone will not atone, or let a soul forget. Those cries and screams, they're not just dreams, imagination's lies. Goddamn the whore, the bitch who bore, you killers from the skies. He just flies the bomber, he never sees their eyes when the hell comes down. He just flies the bomber.

@johnmburt1960 For the CIA maybe. Army drones is more than a little bit different. Despite the name, Precision Guided Munitions aren't yet 100 percent, neither accurate nor lethal. Even then, often it's possible to save guy if you get him medical treatment within 30 minutes. So Army command actually forces you to watch the guy die, and make sure that the target will not get up again, including the reactions of friends, family, and civilians react to the death of the guy and also the deaths of any innocents who were caught in the collateral damage. Laugh all you want about how cowardly it is to kill through a computer screen, but it is no less stressful than actually being there and pulling the trigger.

[@MichalSoukup1995]

​@johnmburt1960 It really depend on the war. If you are bombing Nazis who started it, are hundred percent evil, and would love nothing more, then to murder you and your friends in alphabetical order (slight parabole, but not that much when it come to actual nazis), then you will have easier time fighting the guilt compared to fighting some poor sob whose crime was to live in oil producing country.

[@MichalSoukup1995]

@johnmburt1960 True enough, but the pilots are not responsible, the NAZIs were, they could at any point ask for terms and try to stop the war (Or not start it at all). The cold harsh reality is that the shortest way to end war is to win it with decesive overhealming force.
