Poor quality[edit]

Many of the examples given in this page are flat out wrong - "The latter end of the Battle of Stalingrad could be seen as a suicide mission from the German perspective, as they were ordered to fight to the death with no option of surrendering nor the chance of escape" This is incorrect, the axis troops surrendered at the start of Feb 1943, as the article for the battle of stalingrad states in the opening section

I removed a section about chernobyl liquidators (very few of whom actually died, and neither they nor those responsible for the effort expected them to die). But after that I realised that really we probably need to rewrite most of the article or delete it to be honest, a lot of these are unsubstantiated examples that seem to be crowbaring things the author just thinks are cool into the article (an entire section on "special forces" really isn't appropriate in this article) 130.225.33.98 RugnirViking (talk) 00:46, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
