Very True. Today's wars use drones and other means to keep our guys out of harms way while still inflicting casualties on the other side.Not to intentionally continue to keep things dark, I just want to mention that both of my grandfathers fought in WW1 and my dad fought in WW2. One of my grandfathers fought at Vimy Ridge, the other one at Passchendaele. Check google images for those battle scenes. It's no wonder the men that came back weren't the same.
Vietnam was the last conflict where we had full on hand to hand combat. It still happens on occasion but not like guerilla style we saw in Vietnam. In WWII we lacked the technology we have now to be able to stay further away from the enemy, plus there was way too many of them spread over vast areas.
How do we liven this thread back up from the darkness we brought upon it?
