I know napalm usage was quite common in wartime between WW2 and Vietnam, and I’m also very aware of just how damaging the substance was to the people affected. Internal damage, skin essentially melting, burning underwater (cue Phil Swift), etc. My question is, how were soldiers able to, for lack of a better word, safely use napalm without harming themselves as well as their targets?
In: Other
napalm isn’t harmful until it’s on fire. it’s not on fire until it’s dropped out of a plane. they weren’t just handling flaming napalm. they were able to safely use it by being thousands of feet up in the air when the bombs went off.
