Not at all. They don't believe in killing. Part of their religion in following the ten commandments. One of them is, "Thou shall not kill". In the original hebrew, it says "murder". Consequently, soldiers killed as required, they did not murder.

Do Mormons kill the enemy in combat?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) do serve in combat in the military and therefore are sometimes required to kill the enemy. This is a natural part of war. However, it is usually considered inappropriate to discuss such things with soldiers. Mormons believe that killing another human being in battle as required by your military position is an act of duty and defence which is acceptable and forgiven.
What year was the Mormon war?
There are three events commonly referred to as the "Mormon War": The Missouri Mormon War took place in 1838 between the Mormons and their non-Mormon neighbors in northwest Missouri. The Mormons ended up leaving Missouri due to the hostility they faced, so I suppose you might say that the Missourians won. The Illinois Mormon War took place from 1844 to 1846 between the Mormons and their non-Mormon neighbors in western Illinois. The Mormons ended up leaving Illinois due to the hostility, so you might say that the Illinoisians won. The Utah Mormon War took place from 1857-1858 between the Mormons living in the Utah Territory and the United States Government. James Buchannan, the President of the US, had heard a false rumor that the Mormons were planning a rebellious uprising, and sent troops to Utah to stop it. The Mormons thought that the troops were being sent to destroy them. The Mormons did all they could to hinder the progress of the troops and then packed up and moved south out of the path of the army. Eventually, the 'war' was won by negotiation, the Mormons agreed to allow the troops to stay in the territory, and the troops agreed to leave them alone unless they posed a threat to the nation.
What was the reason of Utah war?
Mormons and religious issues running up against the US government.
