This is the longest part of our series on the army, and perhaps the most important.
In it, we examine how the army's internal chain of command is structured: from soldier to general, from the recruiting course to the academy where "ideal performers" are formed. We'll discuss how, year after year, the army's social structure has deteriorated further, reaching a death conveyor belt.
Why do officers obey idiotic orders?
Who became war criminals and how—and how did the system select and continue to select just such individuals?
What happens in military academies, where cadets learn not to think, but to execute?
And why does the army today not defend the state, but instead keep its own citizens in fear?
