Fuck American soldiers first, then be American. Will these soldiers shoot at their motherland?

Many people want to be Americans, but Americans are not that easy to become. Therefore, it is not uncommon to take shortcuts or even accept a "warlord". For example, in the US military, you can get a green card or even be naturalized directly in one step.

In 2009, in order to alleviate the shortage of soldiers, the US military launched the MAVNI project, aiming at recruiting soldiers with "special language or medical skills", among which the language skills required by the US military mainly refer to the following languages: Africa, Southeast Asia, China, Indian and Eastern Europe.

However, this project has now experienced twists and turns. With the strengthening of background checks on such soldiers in the United States, many recruits have retired, and even soldiers who have served for a period of time cannot guarantee that you will definitely have citizenship in the future.

It can be seen that it is not easy to join the army as an American-you can't even work hard.

However, although this project has run aground, there are many other "green card soldiers" serving in the US military. If there is a war between the United States and their motherland, will these people aim their guns at their former compatriots?

By extension, those second-generation immigrants who have obtained American citizenship and joined the army will face such problems and what choices will they make?

Most people may think that from an ethical point of view, it is impossible to have such a thing, but I am afraid the fact is just the opposite. These people may fight harder and attack harder in the war.

Don't forget, how is America independent? 1775 when the gunfire rang in Lexington, weren't many of these "rising up" North American militia descendants of the British?

Of course, it seems too long to talk about things more than 200 years ago. We might as well look at what happened in the past century.

After the full-scale outbreak of World War II, the United States cannot be immune to it. 194 1 pearl harbor incident, he officially joined the fray, and his main opponent was Germany in Europe. In Asia, it is Japan.

The United States is an immigrant country, with a large number of Germans and a certain number of Japanese. Of course, there are many Germans and Japanese in the army, so how should these soldiers be used?

Although many senior generals of the US military at that time were Germans, such as Eisenhower and Nimitz, the US military had to consider their loyalty when using these German and Japanese troops against the home country. Therefore, in principle, combat troops composed of descendants of the two countries should avoid fighting in the home country.

Compared with white German-Americans, Japanese-Americans suffered severe discrimination after Pearl Harbor incident, and even were forced to transfer to concentration camps for monitoring and management. Under this premise, the American troops composed of Japanese often work harder than ordinary American troops in order to prove that they are Americans and loyal to the United States.

For example, in World War II, the regimental unit with the highest casualty rate and the most honors in the history of the US military turned out to be the 442 Infantry Regiment composed of Japanese-of course, the regiment mainly fought in the European battlefield.

But even if there is a principle of avoiding the home country, the principle cannot be observed. In fact, in the war against Japan, many Japanese-American troops were engaged in pointing their guns at the past.

In the Pacific battlefield, the US military recruited more than 6,000 Japanese-Americans to join the army. These people mainly undertake the work of intelligence analysis, rebellion persuasion and prisoner interrogation in the war zone. Although they are on the invisible front, these people have played a great role, and they have contributed to almost all the great victories of the US military.

In a few cases, these American troops also directly participated in the fighting, and of course they were not soft.

Therefore, it is actually a very unlikely event to expect these American troops not to shoot, because they are of the same blood, skin color and face shape.

Let's go back to the question of Chinese Americans. Because Chinese Americans have been discriminated against for a long time in the United States, there are few traces of Chinese Americans in the US military for the same long time. It was not until 1943 that the United States abolished the Chinese Exclusion Act passed by 1882. After a large number of Chinese were naturalized, many Chinese joined the US military.

According to statistics, during World War II, the total number of Chinese Americans was about 107000, of which about 13499 joined the US military. Most of them served in the 3 rd, 4 th, 6 th, 32 nd and 77 th infantry divisions and the Army Air Force (the predecessor of the US Air Force), and some of them participated in the confrontation under the 14 Air Force (Flying Tigers).

After the end of World War II, a large number of American troops were demobilized, and the number of American troops with more than 6.5438+million posts quickly decreased to 6.5438+0.5 million. Most South Koreans also retired from active service, and only a few South Korean soldiers were in the army, some of whom took part in the Korean War that broke out in 654.38+0950.

Shortly after the Korean War broke out, Chinese people's Volunteer Army entered the Korean War and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea began. In the second campaign to resist US aggression and aid Korea, there was an unforgettable moment when the Ninth Corps encircled the US Army 1 Marine Division.

After being surrounded by a detachment of the US military, a volunteer army suddenly heard a cry, "Don't shoot, I am from China." Several soldiers hesitated in an instant and stopped shooting. At this critical moment, an American with a Chinese face suddenly shot, and the besieged American troops behind him also took the opportunity to break through.

The Chinese-American soldier who spoke Chinese and fought for China was named Lv Chaoran. At that time, he was the second lieutenant platoon leader of Marine Corps 1 Division 7 Regiment 1 Battalion B Company. This man is the first non-white officer in the US Marine Corps and the first Chinese officer in the US Army.

Lv Chaoran's father, a Cantonese, was born in San Francisco, USA, and is regarded as a second-generation immigrant.

In fact, the concept of being an American is deeply rooted in the second generation of immigrants. It is really impossible to expect these people not to shoot. On the contrary, these people may be more dangerous, because they have the same face and even speak the same language.

Compared with the second generation of immigrants (after the second generation, the second generation is more than the second generation), the first generation of immigrants still have some local concepts, but they are all in the United States, so it is unlikely that this will happen. After all, he wants to prove to other Americans that he is an American!

As early as the Tang Dynasty, there was a scene of "Han Er talking nonsense, but cursing Han people in Chengtou". Today, those Ingley-style immigrant soldiers in American paradise will shoot if they really want to be enemies with their motherland. Of course, we can't be soft any more. (There are examples on the Korean battlefield)
