what would be the tactical advantage of having soldiers get slightly drunk/buzzed before battle?
>>28360913
Bleed out faster and monopolize less time of medics
>>28360913
>worse aim
>worse unit cohesion
>worse command and control
>wounded soldiers bleed out and die faster
What the the advantages? None.
courage

Dodge bullets

It'd be funner.
>>28360939
> bolder
> less inhibited by fear
> more likely to do dangerous things
> some have said having a little drink makes their aim better
>>28360945
debatable
But Im not some fag who thinks grunts shouldn't be allowed to drink.

Here's a tip anon, anyone who tells you that they can perform tasks involving dexterity (driving, shooting, etc) better while drunk merely perceive themselves to be better.
>>28360960
A little buzz can really make some people more accurate? Im not one of them. Only one substance I've quit recently has made it maybe a bit easier to aim (not necessarily faster or better).
>>28360983
That's bullshit. Alcohol is considered a performance enhancing drug for Olympic shooting competitions.

how about having soldiers on cocaine?
>>28360913
Less fear, but at the equal expense of judgment.

adderall?

Pretty much everyone in world war 2 was on shitloads of Methamphetamine, especially air crews and the Germans generally. It was referred to as Panzerschokolade.

>bleed out faster
Is there even science that proves that?
look at the performance of the WWII era soviet army and you'll find the answer
Losing the battle

Alcohol is a blood-thinner.
>>28360913
everything's better with booze, kid. you'll learn that when you get to college.

Yes absolutely. Basically alcohol being hepatotoxic and all, it fucks with the clotting factors produced by the liver. AKA thinner blood, not to mention lower BP to begin with

Except for the rest of your life...
>>28360939
http://www.faqs.org/sports-science/Sc-Sp/Shooting.html a very slight buzz improves aim. I'm talking a shot before battle.

They won't come back.

What is the advantage of soldiers taking adderall before combat?
>>28365487
Then you just drink more to dull the pain of living.

1. Do tanks get fucked by salt water?
2. Are tanks/artillery/IFV effective at traversing saturated beach sand?
A division of drunken gun-fu masters would result
