It depended upon whether you are talking about the ETO (European Theater of Operations) or the Pacific. In the Pacific, we have all heard about the atrocities committed by the Japanese. The Japanese were fanatical. The Banzai charge is well documented in history. The Japanese also adhered to the code of Bushido, the warrior way. In this code, there was no mention of surrender. The Japanese did not believe in surrender. They would win or die. Anyone who did surrender was pathetic and not worthy of life. Because of this, the fighting in the Pacific was very brutal, no holds barred, no quarter asked or given. It was kill or be killed, with all the weapons at the hands of the Allies used, but still hand to hand was common. As for ETO, again it depended upon whether it was Germany against the Allies or Germany against the Soviets. Against the Allies, the Germans fought hard and stubbornly. They did not give ground until late in 44. The Germans would fight you tooth and nail. After D-Day, they turned the brocage of Normandy into a virtual death trap. In Arnhem, the SS were civil. But on the Eastern front, it was very much like the Pacific in that it was kill or be killed. Both sides engaged in whole sale slaughter whenever possible. Humanity took a back seat to barbarity. The fighting was often up close and personal and very lethal.

∙ 12y agothe civil war fighting was very viscous it was brutal and heartbreaking. People who were rich watched men on each side fight. They watched it like we watch a football game now. It was completely wrong and rude. now war has more weapons and fighting machines so it is even more dangerous...

∙ 13y agoIt was very much based on advancing across territory through use of trench warfare. Opposing sides dug trenches a few miles from each other and each would endeavour to get to the other side.
