In fact, after reading it, I have been thinking, what is the war for? The male protagonist said that the war is to eliminate evil and to avenge his sacrificed comrades-in-arms, but for the innocent people of Iraq, the US military is the evil. Excessive glorification of the suspicion of war, to the audience that the United States is the hero who saves the world, and the Iraqi armed groups are thugs who randomly mutilate the people, but if we think about it from another angle, the sniper shot by the protagonist 1mile, if he lost because of the war. After all his relatives, he saw his child being attacked by artillery fire and died under the thick smoke before he took up arms to avenge his own child. The real evil in this war is neither the American soldier nor Iraq. An armed organization, but a government that provoked war. In the end, the protagonist died to help veteran, I think this is the most ironic, a legend is not killed on the battlefield, not by the enemy's attack, but by someone who has suffered as much as him Soldiers devastated by artillery fire. His wife said to him, "I want you to be a human". What he lost in the war was not only his comrades, his health, or the opportunity to accompany his children, he lost himself, and he could not control his own Emotions, feeling that he is in danger all the time, and if the veteran hadn't killed him, it might have been himself who killed him in the end. When a generation of legendary was sent to the post-war spiritual recovery center, I thought, that may be the moment when he was more desperate than chasing his comrades in the thick smoke.
