I bet you can imagine Russian soldiers in that position. Why not Americans?
Not the person you were asking, but pretending as if the USian/NATO military isn’t the most vile on the planet is silly.
There are plenty of places in the US where abject poverty reigns supreme

Factor in the ever present propaganda, and their fate was never their own, sadly.
You are excusing grown-ass monsters’ atrocities because they bought the propaganda as if they had no mind of their own to think that killing foreigners for oil is bad.
