Question: Who are the Bad Guys?

[WBWilder]

One last thought. War does bring out the worst and the best in men, politics aside. My goal and I think the goal of most designers is to highlight that "best" side.

I look at it this way, the good guys were the young men sent to war and the bad guys the politicians that sent them to war.

Kunel,

There are neither good guys nor bad guys, there are just a gaggle of poor kerls doing their service at the same time we are. Someone came to their homes, said you must come with us, shoved a rifle in their hands and made them learn to use it. We are called the security forces, they are called terrs. But to a lot of people, we are the terrs and they are the security forces. So, f))k dit, do your job, obey your orders and try to come through it in one piece with your sanity intact.

Beside all, in a hundred million years the cockroaches won't give a turd who was SF and who was terr.

Necro-ing.
Being an expert on the French _ Algerian War and Guerre Revolutionnairre Doctrine, I can safely tell you there is NO good guys in that war. Both sides thought themselves the good guys, but neither were.

If you want literature, let me know. You should start out by reading Jean Larteguy's novels to get a feel for the situation and how the French Paras felt.
