There's not an option for "Completely Stupid and Out Of Their Minds"

They are wasting a perfectly good fighting man and a perfectly good plane when a bomb or a rocket could be sent in their place.

I think Kamikaze Attacks are only to be used as a complete, last ditch, nothing-else-is-possible, last resort type of thing.

You could call them brave if you wanted to...but I think it comes down to the Asian "Honor" thing. Boys liked the idea of being a hero for their country and I don't blame them. I just think the way they did it was not good at all.

Same with the "Banzai Charges".....It's not a whole lot different. Just Kamikaze Soldiers. I think it shouldn't be a common combat practice. It's just a big waste.
