Zustand: Fair. In his book Men Against Fire, historian S. L. A. Marshall asserted that only 15 to 25 percent of American soldiers ever fired their weapons in combat in World War II. . . . Shooting at the enemy made a man part of the "team," or "brotherhood." There were, of course, many times when soldiers did not want to shoot, such as at night when they did not want to give away a position or on reconnaissance patrols.

One of rifle company commander Harold Leinbaugh's NCOs summed it up best when discussing Marshall: "Did the SOB think we clubbed the Germans to death?".…
