Short stories of 5 real soldiers, all in the 20th century, whos exploits make Rambo look like a pussy.

http://www.cracked.com/article_17019_p1.html

I'm not military myself, and consider myself a borderline pacifist, but... this here is some good reading. Take a moment to enjoy it if you can.

as far as i can tell, yes. lol
even though their writing style could lead you to think otherwise.
its just their thing, they do this edgy writing style thing.

This guys should get the discipline award: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroo_Onoda

Japanese WW2 soldier who refused to believe the emperor's surrender. He was told to hold his ground unless ordered otherwise and thus refused to surrender to Allied forces for 29 years. They actually flew in his former commanding officer from Japan to order him to surrender in 1974.
