Inside the unfinished nuclear-proof Soviet submarine hideout

I don't know. I grew up same stuff as most of us did, gadgets and weaponry getting more and more sophisticated and deadly, yet it seems to me that many of our most positive advances have been in individual protection. This has always seemed to me to be a sign of the "good guys". The bad guys are always happy to throw their troops under the wheels of the abattoir disregarding the losses.
I have always taken a sense of pride in our fanatical drive to protect the individual.
It goes straight on with the sense of country that I was raised with. When a country values its men as much or more than it's equipment it has always seemed that translates into the countries attitudes in war. We absolutely want to devastate our enemies but we aren't interested in simply inflicting mass casualties...especially through collateral damage. Most civilized nations..regardless of politics..seem to take this tack. Yet the international terrorist and the terror state have become the global nemesis and norm in my lifetime. Sure they are fighting against relative superpowers whose weaponry renders them defenseless in open combat as a rule.... yet the hallmark of the terrorist is always to use civilian populations as cover and human shields.....even in the most pathetic ways which I saw when the terrorist forces in Iraq would blow up several hundred of their own countrymen to kill a few US soldiers. All the bombers, submarines, jet fighters, and armored divisions in the world are rendered ineffectual against an enemy who will use those tactics.

so many of the Old Nazi and Soviet Bunkers and Underground Facilities could be Put to good Use... but they could Make a great Place for an old Fart Like me...
