Amazed by PSYOPS!
Wow, I never realized how brutal war actually is! Sure, I knew that it wasn't good and there were a lot of angry words and actions being passed back and forth between the enemies, but the whole idea of PSYOPS really opened my eyes to how disgusting war is! I think it's interesting how the enemy does everything in their will power to plan their propaganda and eventually plan their attack. They do everything they can to get into their enemy's heads and attack them through their weaknesses. I never knew that there were even such things as "leaflets of PSYOPS" that were made with the intentions of getting the enemy to surrender. One question that I do have is: Are the leaflets just little pieces of paper like on a note card of something? What were they like and how were they distributed out to the enemy? Anyway, I am really fascinated with the facts of war and I am excited to finish reading The Things They Carried. I couldn't imagine being personally involved in war or have a family member that was. It would be absolutely devastating!!! Thank God I am lucky and don't have to deal with that crap! Well, not directly that is. I guess our nation is dealing with it right now:(
