I appreciate the narration! If, say, this had been Golgo 13, then the closest thing to lettering in the last four panels here would've been "..." "..." "..." "..."

Imagine being a soldier, sent to kill a national hero because some asshole who's probably getting the gallows now told you to.

You're in the middle of the forest watching, them you decide to light a cig to calm down a bit. Next thing you see after the smoke is not on your eyes anymore and the smell isn't blocking your nose, is that guy you supposedly should be after to kill, right in front of you, about to disenbowel your sorry ass.

Yeah, let's hope that soldier was on day on whatever religions he follows, because he's about to get sent to the Afterlife.

You say that like soldiers are evil for obeying orders. As far as they know, Herman is the target and he is the enemy they must find and kill. They were supposed to get their orders rescinded but that will not happen soon enough.

Too bad the military is not an adventurer's club where everyone can just do whatever. Maybe then these soldiers could selectively choose to obey orders or not. But then they wouldn't be soldiers, would they, and the D-bag that ordered them out there would not be for kibble?

,,, where I said that I thought soldiers are evil? I only said what's happening on it: a soldier about to get killed because some asshole decided it was a good idea to kill a national hero

I am not going to argue with you. But I did say "say that like..." The implication being that you did not say "Soldiers are evil". However it is an easy inference to your comment.

This could be bad if they already got issued the new orders...

If they had gotten new orders they would have left already.

I'm pretty sure the Surgeon General doesn't use a K-bar.

Thats gonna hurt.

well consdiering he doesnt have the gun in his hands, im pretty sure hes gonna die, hopefully it hits the throat so he wont yell and alert the others. that or if they are alrerted the rat can take the gun off him quick enough to mow them down

Now THAT is a "smoking kills" ad.

You'd think a guy like Herman would have learned knife throwing.

Well, that's a combat knife, and unlike movies, that would be a shitty projectile

Yeah....that last panel, there? That's definitely the point of no return. And yet another reminder that smoking is bad for you.

And you posted this the day before World No Tobacco Day.

Excellent step-by-step demonstration of commando tactics.
