This black & white film military training film "How to Get Killed in One Easy Lesson" was shown to infantry recruits during WWII. It is part of a series of "Fighting Men" films, designed to reinforce principles taught in field training. In this case, the film focuses on how careless behavior -- leads to death. Copyright 1943.
Opening: Official Training Film - Fighting Men - How to get killed in one easy lesson
(:08-:35). American soldiers advance in a jungle, they crawl on their stomachs. An A Japanese enemy soldier fires his gun at him, misses, the G.I. retaliates and shoots the enemy. Another enemy soldier shoots at the American and misses, his gun jams. The American makes both men get out of their trees and he advances on them with his gun but they were made to throw theirs down. The American has his bayonet pointed at them. He is angry they killed his other men but the Japanese soldier explains the Americans 'killed themselves' (:36-3:24). The Japanese soldier explains they were careless. American soldiers go through water. Americans take cover coming up the hill. One of them pokes his head out and is shot by a Japanese soldier. The American falls back dead. The Japanese solider kills another American who hid alone behind a bush. The Japanese soldier waits for the American soldiers. A soldier waves a white flag and is killed, another has a shiny bayonet and gives his position away and is shot and killed (3:25-5:30). Another American runs, takes cover by jumping down into a dirt pit. Another soldier goes into the same pit and doesn't advance, he pops up in the same spot and is shot dead. Two soldiers talk and give away their positions and one is shot. Another group are all bunched up together - they are blown up by a Japanese mortar and killed. They are strewn about. Another group of soldiers in the same ditch, they are all shot dead by a machine gunner who watched them (5:31-7:00). The American takes the two Japanese soldiers and leads them through the jungle at gunpoint. They run into other Americans who round up the enemy. The surveying soldier tells an MP (Military Policeman) that he will train other men to be better and give them a lesson on how to get killed (7:01-7:56). End credits (7:57-8:01).

To be honest, Sarge here only lived due to sheer plot armor.

[@loganbarnes9672]

Lol yeah.

[@laurenceperkins7468]

The ammunition for the Arisaka was terrible. Way overlong. Doesn't even look right. The bullets tended to tumble. Know a fellow who tested some as a starting point for trying to make one shoot decently. Bullet curved over forty degrees off the point of aim and went sideways through the backstop. With a decent load the rifle itself shot pretty well. But the stuff they were issuing to their troops was utter garbage.

[@MagronesBR2]

That was Naruto-tier of Plot Armor

[@Lazyguy22]

@@laurenceperkins7468 Does ammunition age?

[@laurenceperkins7468]

@@Lazyguy22 It can. Usually the primer ceases to ignite and they turn into duds. But even when it was new it didn't work that well (at least, according to my grandfather, who brought it home from the war.) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6.5%C3%9750mmSR_Arisaka#/media/File:6_x_50_mm_SR_(Arisaka).jpg See how long that bullet is? That's the problem. It ends up being terribly unstable. Modern runs of the cartridge use a shorter bullet and don't have the same problems. The rifle itself is pretty decent. And, in point of fact, it's the strongest mass-produced rifle action ever last I heard. Maybe somebody's surpassed it in recent years, but the Arisaka action was commonly re-built into things like elephant guns after the war. But some of the cartridges issues over the course of the war were just horribly bad.

- Don't take your time when you pop up to look. Take one quick glance and pop back. - Don't transition to obvious places. - Concealment is not the same as cover - Concealment doesn't work if parts of you can be seen outside it. - The enemy can see where you entered cover or concealment. Don't pop your head up where they'll expect you to. - The enemy can hear you, and they don't need an exact location to use it against you - Space out. A crowd is an opportunity

Addendum for occupying territory: -Don't salute your CO unless you want to see his brains. -Don't leave your fancy equipment for the enemy -Be extremely cautious of anyone that lives outside your base. The enemy will use civilians to their advantage. -Take security seriously. Don't tell anyone that doesn't need to know, don't fall asleep on watch duty, don't leave the gate unlocked.

"This other American decided to take prisoners by himself in an active combat area and them stand around listening to stories. Nice guy. Nice and dead too."

[@PineappleLiar]

I was waiting for one of the two guys to pull out a grenade and take the us soldier down with him. On the Pacific Front in particular it was notoriously difficult to get Japanese PoWs, part of that being caused by training that valued suicide attacks over capture. It’s reflected in the PoW statistics too, with Japanese troops having the smallest number of PoWs out of any major combatant of the war (at least until the Soviet Union moved into a bunch of Imperial Japanese territory at the end of the war).

[@cuebj]

Exactly - or shout so Japanese gunnery spotter could work out their position. My father in Burma campaign after Kohima. Silence was essential. Every dead or wounded Japanese booby trapped. Until very end, when they had no ammunition and were starving to death, no PoWs. They had a death cult - almost wanted to die in battle more than win. Burma turned on realisation that Japanese were actually bad soldiers badly led, as in recklessly prepared to die charging machine guns rather than live to fight another day or not bothered with logistics of supply lines to feed troops while assuming they would capture allies' food dumps. Intense training from 1943 meant allies were smarter jungle fighters than Japanese in 1944-45. Allies in Burma were Indian, British, Naga, African, Nepali, US pilots of Dakota transport planes

[@agalie7139]

Exactly what I learned in the army , if there is not a ditch or a path ,create one and preferably in the direction of a machine gun ( indirect fire ). Preparing a defense position is also preparing the ground in front of your position ( cutting trees that blocks your view,blocking some paths,clear some areas of high grass, concealing your position by creating dummy positions...).Evidently the modern war is more complicated but a good preparation can save you.

(edited) Before you write me a silly comment, read the thread to the end. There is a high probability that your -idiotic- question has already been written / answered MANY TIMES. And I got tired of it for a long time. This is especially true of those strange people who draw knowledge from games and films. (end of edition) Either your father is a fool, or you don’t understand anything. Or both, which is not surprising for Westerners. Aiming to hit a small target from a mortar is unrealistic. Even if you do not change aiming, but simply throw shells into the mortar barrel, the natural dispersion during firing will be many tens of meters. The mortar, in principle, is not intended for marksmanship. Its task is to create a sufficiently dense fragmentation stream in the air in a certain zone, and make it impossible for the free movement of infantry there. A soldier in any hole in the ground is a fairly difficult target to hit. On the Soviet - German front, ditches, craters from explosions and so on were used by everyone and always. The Soviet infantryman (up to our time) always had a small sapper shovel in his equipment. If, during the attack, the enemy's resistance becomes too strong, then the soldiers are ordered to dig in where they are. In 1-2-3 minutes, a lying soldier, without lifting the body from the ground at all, digs a shallow trench for shooting from a prone position. Then the trench is knee-deep, waist-deep, in the evening - an individual trench in full growth. Already starting from the middle depth of the trench, only a direct / close explosion of a projectile, or a very unsuccessful fragment of a projectile arriving along a ballistic trajectory, can kill a soldier. Or are Western soldiers so dumb that they stand in a ditch to their full height, instead of lying there? ))

The Japanese saw anyone not Japanese as beneath them and as far as the allies learned quickly it was safer to shoot them. Prisoners were taken on both sides but it was a crap shoot for treatment. If you were Japanese and made it to the rear you were treated very well. As for Americans and ANZACs I don't think you need to look far to find what that experiance was.And I edit because I am remiss.The British, Indians, Gurkha and Chindits as well.The Chinese had their own special hells at the hands of the Imperial Army.
