TS Eiseihei-san no Senjou Nikki - Ch. 6

[Fushiginiku]

General George S. Patton, at the absolute peak of his popularity and command, was cashiered and sent into back-line duty for pistol whipping a couple soldiers hospitalized with PTSD (they called it battle fatigue back then, but same thing). That was one hell of a lot less than this, and a person at a hell of lot higher position than some grunt platoon leader.

The reason they did so is that a leader like that is a disaster for morale. The brass in Vietnam were a punch of jingoistic idiots drunk on past glory who forgot this fact, and many bad low level officers found a grenade being thrown into their tent. You don't let people like that run loose in your army.

After I read the little novel extra at the end of last chapter i already knew salsa was dead, he gave his backstory and yeah that's the death flag 🫡

This scene is so braindead
If MC didnt use shield everyone would have died, theres no point arguing about permissions when its survival
And no putting the shield at an angle would not have helped deflecting a grenade coming from above wtf

 

[Palolo]

the only reason he lived this long is the power of bs (cutting bullets somehow) and being written by an abuse porn addict

Japanese army.. makes sense

The dude is a giant brute but he isn't a fool. Can't say I like him even then.

People like him is why I would hope I'd have the courage to shoot him in the back of the head.
If enough regular people did that to the a**holes and the sh*tty leaders, then mankind would be better off.

(to teach her how to angle a fucking shield btw lol, which would have done nothing against an explosive charge because she was trying to contain it not deflect it)

It was about the explosion rather than the physical grenade. You deflect the force and shrapnel from the explosion to the sides of you rather than taking it head on.

No, at the range her shield works she'd still get hurt pretty bad by the diffracting shockwaves. Whatever though, fantasy logic. I should have never thought that much to begin with.

I could say he is harsh, yes, but I could also call it tough love for his subordinates
