I watched Catch-22 today, a very interesting movie. The whole series consists of six episodes. During the period of the Air Force bomber unit, some things mainly revolved around the protagonist Yoyo. Because they were not satisfied with the commander's increasing the number of combat missions, they tried to escape but had to face reality. According to Catch 22, only lunatics can be exempted from flying, but the application must be made in person, but once you apply, it just proves that you are a normal person, or you are doomed. Article 22 also stipulates that pilots can return to China after flying 25 sorties, but it also says that you must obey orders absolutely, or you will not be able to return to China. So the superior can keep increasing the number of flights for the pilot, and you must not disobey. Repeatedly, never ending. So this falls into a sort of (Schrödinger's cat) kind of rebuttal. Similar to the history of Chinese folk philosophy, the chicken or the egg came first. As soon as the protagonist Yoyo appeared, he was in the training queue under the direct control of Officer X. Officer X was a formalist who had to worry about every detail, but he had no practical skills, so that he could not even train the morality of the queue well. Instead, he gave advice to the soldiers. Give corporal punishment. Yo Yo, during the training period, I actually had an affair with Officer X's wife. During the affair, I explained why I wanted to serve in the Air Force. Since I couldn't escape this war, I thought that the Air Force should receive longer training, maybe after the training. The war is over, and as you can see from here, our protagonist, Yoyo, hated the war from the very beginning. This fact is also verified from a series of his own practices and behaviors. Yo Yo is really a blessing and a big life, and it is also the spokesperson for the god of death. First, comrade A, who lived in the same room, died at a high altitude. Before he died, he dropped his body on the window of the plane. Since then, he has been afraid of death. Determined to leave the army to retire and go home. Comrade B is a rookie in the new report, because Yoyo joked, he entered the wrong unit while reporting, and he went to the battlefield a few minutes later. Comrade C is a colleague of Yoyo's plane. While playing on the water, he joked that he was hit by the propeller in front of the machine because of a machine failure. Only one leg and arm remain. Comrade D committed suicide because of his remorse for his flight error. The body was burnt to charcoal. Comrades-in-arms E and Yoyo are also colleagues of an airplane. As a machine gunner in the tail compartment on the plane, they have almost no sense of existence, but because Yoyo missed the pitch The chance of bombing, returning to the period of continuous bombing, comrade E was unfortunately killed by the enemy. Comrade F disappeared through the explosive smoke in the air during the bombing mission. His life and death are unknown. Some people say that he went to Sweden, and some people say that he crashed. Judging from Yoyo's expression, it is more inclined that they crash and die. Comrade G is here to fill in for the last time the machine gunner in the tailgate. When we met for the first time, Yoyo told the rookie as an old driver who had already flown 50+ times. It's alright, just sit near the machine gun and wait for us to turn around and come back. So much so that he was killed by shrapnel just because he was sitting in this position, Yoyo felt remorse and remorse, looking at the blood all over his body and the internal organs that flowed out, Yoyo no longer wears clothes. Another time, Yoyo himself was cut into his scrotum by a bullet, almost lost his balls, and fell into an Italian family. After being rescued, he actually fell in love with the owner's young daughter. From this, it can be seen that Yoyo still hopes for peace. Life. So that after returning to the camp, he tried his best to go home, even if the doctor tried to persuade him to cheat, he never wanted to meet a perverted officer X, but he actually took off his pants to check his balls, so that the enemy's road was narrow, as long as he didn't die, he would go there battlefield. So far, I have been completely desperate for the army and retirement. During this period, two short stories were interspersed. One of Yoyo's comrades was only a lieutenant because his name was major. He was actually called to a meeting by their superior, knowing that his first name was joking with his surname being his father, so he had no choice but to promote it to a major officer. Yoyo's comrades-in-arms became senior commanders by accident. It also reflects a microcosm of the chaos in the internal management of the US military. It also shows the serious bureaucratic style of the U.S. military during the internal war. What's more confusing is that Y, a comrade-in-arms in Yoyo's air force base's cooking class, got some supplies that are in short supply on the battlefield with his flattery. The ups and downs of non-combat gray planes need to be approved by him. With the resources at hand, he starts a business of reselling war materials. The company's shareholders include military base officers, enemy German troops, and local chiefs. A logistics manager used the resources in his hand to swindle and cheat everywhere, taking advantage of information asymmetry and the convenience of air force transportation to make a lot of money, and was also named the mayor of the local area. It can be seen that the signs of capitalism have penetrated into the US imperialist army. From this, it is not difficult to see that the author criticizes the US army despite its strict system, but its management is chaotic, independent, and serious information asymmetry. So much so that Yoyo sneaked into the war room, raised the bombing line by 80 kilometers, and got bombardment. The officer H, who received the news of the successful bombing and occupation, was eager for success and wanted to go to the city to find a place to stay for the troops, but he was caught alive by the Germans. The so-called "Catch 22" is a famous paradox in the history of literature: According to Catch 22, only lunatics can be exempted from flying combat, but the application must be made in person, but once the application is made Applying, just proves that you are a normal person, or will be on the battlefield. According to Catch-22, pilots are allowed to return to China after completing 25 flight missions, but you must obey orders absolutely, otherwise you will not be able to return to China. The result is that the superior can keep increasing the number of flights for the pilot, and the pilot cannot resist. Such a logical trap full of irony has given a heavy slap in the face to American politicians who boast about the glory of war. In fact, in the word "Catch-22", "Catch" means both a military regulation and a trap. After this series of ironic things, Yoyo was disheartened in the army. From the initial 25 flight missions, he could return to China 30 times, 35 times, 40 times, 45 times, 50 times, and finally 55 times. Every time Yoyo was about to reach it, the commander of the unit would increase the number of flying missions, as if he was deliberately going against Yoyo. In the process of flying team again and again, Yoyo watched her comrades die one by one, she was disheartened, and finally decided to oppose the war by not wearing clothes. So much so that the general who gave the commander of the Mediterranean Sea was also indifferent when he was awarded. At this point, all hopes and fantasies of Yoyo have come to nothing, and only the good luck of not dying every time is left. Every time they have a holiday, they have to go to Rome to have some fun. In fact, they go to prostitutes. The old man with a chicken head in the underworld (a typical opportunist) said some thought-provoking words, "Rome was destroyed, Greece was destroyed, Persia is destroyed, Spain is destroyed, all great empires will be destroyed one day, why should you be an exception to the United States?" the number of lines, and the pilot must not defy it.
