Smithsonian Channel has been running a lot of colorized film from the
Pacific and European wars. It is easy to sit at your computer today and
say what you think should have been done, but watching the reality is
very disturbing. This is footage of people made to dig a grave and
showing them shot and killed in place as they stood in it.

The arm chair generals are usually just speaking out of ignorance and
have never see real war, especially as it was fought in WWII. IMO, the
were The Greatest Generation.
