The psychology of combat (e.g., chapters "e;Why Men Fight"e; and "e;Men Under Fire"e;) is also examined by Marshall, himself a veteran of World War I and a combat historian during World War II.S.L.A. "e;Slam"e; Marshall was a veteran of World War I and a combat historian during World War II. He startled the military and civilian world in 1947 by announcing that, in an average infantry company, no more than one in four soldiers actually fired their weapons while in contact with the enemy. His contention was based on interviews he conducted immediately after combat in both the European and Pacific theaters of World War II.
