A sniper that is literally cold blooded. What a perfect biology to be able to be ambient temperature and have a metabolism of almost nothing while lying in wait for your target/best opportunity? Blend in and be able to stay days in a hide without even needing to take a leak? That is a perfect biological match for the job.

Xenophobia has got to be one of the worst parts of humanity. The concept of hating someone because they're different from you, when those differences cause no harm, is so stupid.

No, they go for pain "only". Not for broken bones and teeth. Because it's freaking idiotic to destroy a good soldier for a training. Beside this kind of torture is a waste of time, 99% of the time. At best you get lies, and false admits from it, never usable intels. If it was start from drugs ? Sleep and sensoriel deprivation ? Then you maybe find something. Or make it a good training.
That ladies and gentleman, is why French love and respect so much the Légionnaire. They have earned their right to be French and have legally their citizenship more than 90% of born French will ever be.
As a retiree from the military, I have found a very deep and strong connection to this story. I pray that I never find a situation like this where I was one of those who became responsible for the fixing of the fuckup.
I think it's the difference between "always having" something and "getting something we never had" mentality. One take far more seriously that what he had to fight for.
I … don’t know, a public trial went long ways to get people to realize racism was not going to be tolerated. I hear Nuremberg is lovely this time of year.

That is baby's first fiction for you. A lot of people cut their teeth on writing propaganda clothed as stories. However, even best selling authors do it sometimes. Afterall, that's what Heinlein did. He was just slightly less ham-fisted about it and far more long-winded. To borrow some of Tolkien's terms, many - especially young - authors are far better at the purposed domination of allegory than the general applicability of history.
@ I kind of figured that when his response was a piece of nonsense rhetoric instead of a real answer. p.s. mattbrown5511, scientists and zoologists have proven that skunks can indeed smell their own spray, as well as the spray of other skunks.

"The men did not survive questioning."
"Homeworld" reference, I expect. Slightly paraphrased. 😃
@@melkiorwiseman5234 yup!
@@melkiorwiseman5234 Full quote is "The subject did not survive interrogation."
And THAT, ladies, is what "Semper Fi" means....

Some of the best stories I've listened to are written by LgFatherAnthrocite. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you General, Rend indeed is one of us. Semper Fi!
A marine is a marine is a marine .
Sounds like special forces infiltration training.

I thought it was SERE training too, until it went Tango Uniform.
@@thomasmandell3002 SERE, Fort Polk Loosyana.

Too bad so many of our guys got that kind of treatment or worse.
And some may face it soon, here at home 🏠

Interesting how some of the most loyal people to the ideal, happened not to be born to it. One of us...we...our. Great story.

cough no survivors cough.

As you make them dig thier own graves and then loudly announce there were no survivors
No, you want survivors... to "interrogate" to find out how deeply the rot runs and to clean it out.
@ Like I said cough "no survivors" cough.
Semper Fi
Did he mess up his number at 7 minutes? I think not being captured alive after doing that to a Marine. Might be a good idea.
After everything he endured, I think it's a miracle he was still mumbling.
Sounds like Zenos are more loyal than some humans,
The red hat mob would sell their granny at the sniff of a threat.
Didnt some of the blue cult literally kill their family members after the election a couple months ago?

We don't need trigger warnings.
FYI, the trigger warning is primarily for the moderators. Otherwise, the story/post might be flagged/removed and the author punished/banned..
There are times I enjoy dark, other times I really don't. It's good to have some idea ahead of time.
@@mackenziedrake It is not good to be treated like a child.
@@machstormer Don't care.
Too bad there were survivors.
My thought is that they go to a prison with a few retired Marines as guards and a few that are inmates
No, you need survivors to "interrogate" to find out how far and deep the rot goes in order to "clean" it out.
In this case... I think the dead are the lucky ones.
More woke shit "woke" writing.
I must have missed something in this story.
Please tell me what part of it is "woke".
Note: NOT TROLLING, I genuinely wish to know.
@@machstormer mmhmm hmm, sure. A skunk can't smell its own spray either.
@@mattbrown5511So in other words you can't say what was "woke" about the story.
@@machstormerThere was nothing, Matt is just trying to be edgy.
