A great publication for anyone interested in military history - which, in my opinion, should include anyone who is interested in understanding the reality of how our species deals with conflict. But the fact is that, wonderful though homo sap is in many ways, we are predators, and we sin, and when push comes to shove, we resolve many conflicts with violence. At its best, military history is about understanding that reality, and about dealing with the loss and grief and, yes, the need for vigilance that are also integral to the hunan experience.
Military history can be about self-aware encounters with the reality of human nature.
