Sounds like back in the Viet Nam days of Soldiers cutting off ears after murdering Innocent civilians, particularly woman and children.

In ancient Egypt, First Dynasty, when ever they did a KIA count they cut off the uncircumcised penises of the dead foes and presented them to the Commander as a head count(sic).

Thanks Little Bill. They sound charming:

Seven others are accused of covering up the killings and assaulting a recruit who exposed the murders when he reported other abuses, including members of the unit smoking hashish stolen from civilians.
