Manhood.. , M48A5K Somewhere in the training field in Korea

ridiculous enough..
i feel sort of a nostalgia or pathos
with this kind of scene..

certainly because i do not have any experience on real war
where i could be dead so easily in a misery..
where i could be terrified under the extreme brutality..

but also because i just like to appreciate
the symbolic representation of the war machine
as a man's blind pursuit of a powerfulness.

i like to be with them.. among the soldiers..
riding on top of the machine.. like the one on horseback..
in the midst of the morning fog..
in the middle of thundering sounds
of the engine of the machines..
with the colleagues sharing all those hardships..

..
definitely now you see my insanity..
sorry.. :p
