Speaking as one pacifist to another (seemingly).
I have never been a 'leader' in anything - union or otherwise.
Soldiers 'bodies in boxes' is as abhorrent to me as it is to you.
In this thread I relay what I have read about the ordinary soldiers reaction to redundancies.
They appear to be very angry, and missed an opportunity to vent it in Germany.
Whether their anger is justified or misplaced is not for me to say, since you so rightly say I don't know enough about it (never have, or even aspired to be, a soldier)
