"That kind of thing happen in war"

Jeez, kind of blase for a guy that's just spent 2 days ranting about a soldier who was acquitted of cutting a finger off a dead body. But you're talking about an Aussie atrocity, so its dismissed in a single post as "those kind of things happen in war". (for the the uneducated we're talking about some Aussie troopers in the Boer War who shot 6 Boers who had surrendered under a white flag, and an unarmed German missionary).

You're right, Morant was tried, sentenced and shot for his crime. However as I understand it he's a national hero in Australia. From here on in, you sanctimonious prig, whenever you refer in your sleazy way to "people like Perry and Calley", you should perhaps add, "and Morant". Or perhaps you can elicidate as to why Morant is different than Calley.

As I understand it the only hicks yukking it up about how much fun it is to shoot unarmed missionaries are your local Aussie variety. Yep, good old Breaker (interesting that you kindly refer to him by his nickname - is that an Aussie version of "Bubba"), he was a good old boy, but he was railroaded by those Brits.

..however as I understand it he's a national hero in Australia...

That's not correct, Mosby. You're reading way too much into the movie version of events. Harry Morant is not a well-known figure in Australian history except amongst those who are actively interested in it.
