War is always a matter of self-interest

Why is it called a flat head? It's
because every soldier has to have a flat head. As the name suggests, this is a set of diaries for a soldier who is a soldier. The film is adapted from a real-life story of a real American soldier participating in the Persian Gulf fighters in 1990. War has always been a matter of self-interest, and everyone fights for their own interests. This time the story is not about the scourge of war, I think there is a satire on war or Bush or oil merchants? Soldiers are trained to become killing machines, but also a bit of a hero useless.
Because of modern warfare, technology is the real protagonist or the real nirvana. No matter how hard you practice in the military school, in the end, the effect is really not great, and there may not even be a chance to enter the real battlefield, and it can only be used as a foil for the war. .
