I was just 20 years dumb when I met a man at work who seemed a little “off” he was brilliant and a former HS teacher. I knew he had served our country as a marine. When a I asked him what he did he ran to his janitor’s station and came back with a certificate that said he was qualified BAR. I later learned he carried that all over the Pacific Islands. Yeah he was messed up but not as bad as his brother who carried a flame thrower.

Even our CEO yielded his seat of one those guys was nearby.

Flame thrower operators had to go through psychological testing and training because they would be getting up and real personal with the enemy.
