Fear = Cowardice?

Filed under: — Rhesa @ 12:54 PST

This seems rather harsh, but it does remind me of one thing: that scene in Patton where the general slaps a soldier in the med tent for crying out of fear. Well, it was more than one slap, but he was reprimanded and told to apologize by Gen. Eisenhower for that…

By the way, that cowardice charge has been dropped. However, the staff sergeant’s commander has filed “dereliction of duty” charges.

This story came via Tacitus, who has his own story to tell. No cowardice at all in that tale, either.
