@cyantile5490 For the most part, you aren't wrong. Don't forget, though, that the entire mythos surrounding Big E is that he and the faith in him is protecting the Imperium from those true terrors. They are generally known to exist, regardless of if they are ever encountered in the lifetime of 99% of your average humans. In this case, they had literally just finished fighting Flayed Ones. That said, the only reasons in universe I can imagine this particular trooper would react this way after seeing the Deathkorps in action are either post-adrenaline shock or a desperate psychological need to separate themselves from the evil of the Necrons.

To expand on it a little - PDF are effectively reserves. Since every planet tithes Guardsmen, those who didn't make the cut stay behind.

PDF are typically less experienced and less prepared than the active regiments of the guard.
