I don't loot anyone. Not sure who you've been talking to about me but they're lying.

Quoted: Do you really loot enemy soldiers once you kill them (for ammo and weapons...assuming a lull or stop in combat)? Do you leave them or have to bury them? I would think it would suck to be looted after being shot on the battlefield. I would think it would also suck to get shot while looting an enemy on the battlefield. Are our enemies worse than us when it comes to this kind of thing? ww2 and before? most definitely, now? no idea. |

Historically, yes. Especially insurgents or poorer nations' soldiers.
The famous photo of the soviets raising their flag over the Reichstag had to be modified because they had numerous German watches on their arms. Some countries based their weapons off their most likely enemy's so that they could use captured ammo. Finland did this. |

You, as in....me? If there is loot, it goes in the stash box. I don't care what it is, shit's mine now.
If you are talking about actual soldiers in war and not me playing video games, I dunno. I imagine if they killed a fucker that was trying to kill them, to the victors go the spoils and all that. I am pretty sure they wait until all the shooting is over though, then loot. I imagine they are mostly just going to get more weapons and supplies. I seriously doubt many go into mortal battle with the deed to their mansion in their back pocket. |

You’re thinking to much about it.
You don’t leave equipment on the battlefield that can be used against you later. Take it or destroy it. Also fuck them. They just tried to kill you. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: It isnt "looting" it is looking for intel. That makes more sense. I imagine everyone is pretty well equipped unless it's a long, drawn out battle. At first I thought special forces would be less likely to do it but they are probably more likely to do it, like with terrorist targets (looking for cell phones etc). |

Collection of enemy weapons and equipment is SOP after a battle. What happens after it is collected determines whether you were looting or contributing to that big thread on Strange Weapons Found in the Middle East.
Never been involved in SSE myself, but according to people I know that, haji cell phones and computers tend to have pretty fucked up porn collections on them. |

First of all he/she is dead. That's a permanent thing. Not like they are coming back later and want their stuff back. And having just blown his head off or his guts out his asshole you have pretty well fucked up his day so taking his watch, ring, or whatever isn't going to affect his situation much. Most of the time it was cheap shit and all nasty so it wasn't worth digging through the the blood and shit to get to it anyway. I tossed a decent Seiko watch cause I couldn't get the dead stink off it.
