Watching this made me realize that I simply lack the capacity to imagine how fucking horrible it must be for these men. Like, they're all seemingly healthy men in the prime of their lives, and they're just... trudging towards certain death. How do you get so resigned? I just simply can't fathom why anybody would willingly accept the order to walk slowly to certain death by drone, a mission that has zero strategic importance, and not just frag their commanding officers instead. I didn't think my imagination was so limited, but it really is. I just simply cannot wrap my head around this.
Well, they're probably killed if they refuse the order. And more importantly even, their family and relatives are probably threatened too.
They're dead the moment they sign for the job. And they probably discover it rather fast.
