vs,
Whilst I have a very tiny little bit of sympathy for your concerns, the fact is 'the need' far outweighs any morale argument that may arise at all.
I hope you are not suggesting that it would be better if we were all wearing jack boots, marching funny and now speaking German, but were able to hold our heads up high and say 'Ah yes, but we fought the war with good morales' the fact we lost, well 'bad luck' or what?
Sorry, I'm with MrBernoulli on this, and thank God we were on the winnig side!
