My aunt's husband was an army lieutenant during Korean war. Imagine George Clooney in all world war 2 movie.. that was him, handsome, charismatic, and real boss.
He would told us crazy Korean war stories like once he met face to face with the North Korea army in the forest,
If one millisecond of panic enters in anyone's mind, if one soldier listed a gun and started shooting, both troops would start shooting and you would have totally died on the spot.
he had to be extremely calm and clear and authority as fuck. He authoritatively yelled, " Drop your weapon, drop them."
It's crazy, right? every story our reaction was always like what???
While remembering this story I thought of what story I could tell to my grandchildren in the future.
"When our computer didn't work, we had to turn it off and turn it back on. that was difficult."
And I bet my future children with self-driving car and robot servant would have the exact same reaction as we were hearing about Korean war. "what??? That's mad as fuck/'
the lies we tell ourselves
the voices inside our head
both troops would have started firing at each other. every single one of them would have been decimated in a second. As a captain, he would have lost all his little soldiers.
the two armies facing each other if one person lift a gun and start shooting you could have been hit and killed, bith troop would be decimated at the spot. you could have lot all the little soldiers you are leading, he had to be extremely calm and clear and authority as fuck.
the lies we tell ourselves
my uncles in vietnam, me in the computer lab, and my grandson going what the fuck?
the voices inside our head
