War is hell.  Any war is hell.  Those who have been thru one don't discuss 
the details with those on the outside.  Most would not understand.  There are 
times in battle when you follow orders to protect your fellow soldiers and there 
are times when  a soldier must protect themselves.  What it takes to do that 
is not always pretty or worth repeating to others who were not there to 
experience the battle.
Any time someone tries to convey a battle event, the words get fumbled and 
miscued.
This is one reason the words of combat are seldom repeated at home.
Best Wishes,
W
