We're told of "wonder weapons" the Germans were working on: Long-range rockets, push-button bombing. . . . . .weapons that don't need soldiers. "Wonder weapon"? My God, I don't see the wonder in them. Killing without heroics. Nothing is glorified, nothing is reaffirmed. No heroes, no cowards, no troops. No generals. Only those that are left alive and those that are left. . . . . .dead. I'm glad I won't live to see it.

Nobody will win a Silver Star for flying one of these, will he?

Wonder weapons such as UAVs won’t replace manned fighters piloted by brave fighter jocks.

Having autonomous unmanned weapons (such as UAVs) like these actually turn war into some kind of sport, not a war for conquest or national survival.
