War games
Sir,—At first I found it quite objectionable that training people to become more efficient at killing other people could be referred to as war games. Then I realised just how appropriate this euphemism is. After all, some boys never do grow out of their fascination with toys of destruction. — Yours, etc.,
ROY WILSON, October 4, 1984.
