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?

Napalm was sprayed at high velocity. As long as you don’t do it into the wind, you’ll be fine. Wearing some gloves or other protective gear (as you might in a war zone) also helps.
So basically the same way they used bullets without harming themselves.
