Don’t watch this if you can’t deal with dead people but this is another perfect example of how brainwashed you become in the army. You shouldn’t feel privileged to kill someone. Doesn’t matter what they are doing, i just don’t think it should be such a celebration.

NEMO Leave him in the ocean, not in the lounge room.
A booming trade in aquarium fish, sparked by Finding Nemo, the Disney film featuring clownfish, is endangering the wildlife of the Vanuatu archipelago in the South Pacific.
The Guardian Newspaper, and a recent ABC Foreign Corrspondent report has hghlighted the decimation of some of our Pacific Reefs, specifically in Vanuatu, all for the sake of having your own ‘Nemo’ in the living room. The Guardian Newspper, 20 November 2003 reports: Over the past yearabout 200,000 fish and other marine creatures have been exported from the country, and local tour firms are warning that the reefs will be at risk if the tropical fish trade is not regulated. “It’s a very popular trade and on the back of Finding Nemo it’s boomed,” said Heidi Bartram, of Vanuatu’s fisheries department. “It’s developing faster than anyone can keep up with. There’s a lack of understanding of reef systems and how fast they recover. Understanding them is hard enough without having the added pressure of people taking the fish.” Concern about the trade and its sustainability is so great the government has set up a committee to examine the issue. The four species of anenome fish in Vanuatu - which are related to, but do not include, the clownfish - are classified within the archipelago’s top 10 most exported species. Concern has grown among local dive firms following the arrival, in April, of a US-owned company, Sustainable Reef Supplies, which employs 20 people to fish the waters around Vanuatu’s main island, Efate, and which dominates the export market. The firm flies out up to 8,000 wild animals a month from the capital, Port Vila. Rare tropical fish can fetch more than £300 an animal in the US and Australian markets, although clownfish can sell for £10.
