OK, slitting throats killed the enemy. Fine.
Why cut off dicks after this? Strange paraphilia? Taking dicks as trophies? Dehumanise the enemy? Imagine going to the effort on an exposed battlefield to get a corpse in position to be able to cut off the trousers and find the dick under the clothes to cut it off in a bloody mess (chopping off a dick from a fresh corpse will bleed like crazy). WTF
To invoke fear and damage the enemy's morale. Equally possible it could be internal propaganda to incite discipline among US forces. Soldiers are less likely to surrender if they believe they will be tortured. You can bet nobody fell asleep outside the wire after hearing that story.
It's about making your enemy fear you. Imagine finding your mate literally dismembered, knowing the people who did it are lurking, just out of sight, waiting to do the same to you.
They didn't state the order these things happened in...
Pinning down 2 live soldiers enough to chop off a dick sounds even more difficult!
They were likely outnumbered and being injured during the whole process.
The VC also could have removed them after being dead. I think it was less about they wanted to do it and more about psychological warfare. The whole platoon will be talking about those poor dismembered men and they may be worried theirs is next.
I’m pretty sure the story is made up. Literally thousands of soldiers got high.
Unless it was a unit of 2 guys, the other guys in their unit would have had their backs
And America lost. Go figure.
You're viewing them as humans. You gotta dehumanize them first to make killing more palatable. And if they're not human, what's a little mutilation?
I prefer to put a happy spin on it and assume it was penis envy.
Penis envy is a theoretical stage in female psychosexual development that occurs when they realize they don't have a penis.
The idea of pre-pubescent viet cong girls running around collecting soldier cocks in the night is even more terrifying.
Necklaces of dried dicks 😫
You do some crazy shit when someone invades your country and just starts raping and murdering.
I can confirm that when I mention drugs (including alcohol) to my kids, I shall warn them of the danger of falling asleep amongst enemies and waking up with dicks drawn all over your face.
Something I blessedly escaped many times. Mostly because I was with good mates, but also because I'm paranoid about that shit.
I have been the perpetrator of dicks on faces but never had done. However a buddy did fill a 2 litre bottle with his piss and put it under my pillow while I slept once. That was just gross.
Didn’t they make a Six Million Dollar Man episode about this exact thing?
Did he get a bionic dong from Dr Wells? Every time a fat woman walks by you'd hear the bionic sound effect?
Points!
I just leave Archer running with I’m falling asleep or doing stuff around my house… one of those quotes is going on my tombstone :-)
Do not do it all the time unless the Dr. prescribed and when you do: responsibly.
If someone is going to slit your throat and cut off your dick, would you rather be sober or high?
