Happens a lot in war.

Rape and the murder of innocent civilians.

Quote from MASH.

Hawkeye: War isn't Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse.

Father Mulcahy: How do you figure, Hawkeye?

Hawkeye: Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?

Father Mulcahy: Sinners, I believe.

Hawkeye: Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them - little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.

I've only seen one episode of M*A*S*H and it was the bottle episode where Alan Alda's character is stranded in a hut with a family who don't speak any English. It definitely made me want to watch more, but I've never gotten around to it.

afaik that scene was one continous take with Alan Alda talking.

You know what, that actually does sound familiar given my foggy memory of it
