1898 Covered them in pig skin and dumped them in a grave. 1914 to 1918 Poked the eyes out of Germans with a ripper in the other side of the bayonet and send them back to their lines. WW2 I have seem pictures of heads cut off and the tooth collectors were documented. In Europe there were days when no prisoners were captured. Korea had killings of NK army mixing with peop[le fleeing. Nam had ears and people attempting to fly and free fire zones. Nothing but lost wars in our future.

I was looking at a book about military doctors while waiting in a doc’s office. When we first came upon some Nazi concentration camp a group of doctors and medics were some of the first to be there and sort of took control of the situation. After a few hours some of the Nazi guards and officers were found hiding.

They were brought out, and the U.S. officer in command - a doctor - hastely asked for volunteers from his medical team to perform the executions. He was not wanting for volunteers, and the Nazi’s were lined up and killed.

I can’t begin to imagine what it must have been like to see the prisoners in that camp. But still found it interesting that the docs had no qualms in rendering a swift justice.

I would like to think that was justice (and revenge?) enough without further acts on their dead bodies. But I suppose not - but the book didn’t say anything about it.
