https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Medicine_Crow

Whenever he went into battle, he wore his war paint (two red stripes on his arms) beneath his uniform and a sacred yellow painted eagle feather, provided by a "sundance" medicine man, beneath his helmet.[3]
Bad fucking ass, I bet that war paint even gave him stat boosts

Interestingly enough he didn't know he was completing the tasks to become war chief as he was doing them. My understanding of it was that he was talking about various things he did during the fighting to the tribal leaders and they were like "uhh...dude you completed all of the stuff to be made war chief" and then made him war chief.

This dude is fucking insane

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Churchill

Went into battle in WW2 with a LONGBOW and a BROADSWORD.

AND BAGPIPES. HE WENT INTO BATTLE... PLAYING BAGPIPES.

He was actively upset the war ended so abruptly, he said "If it wasn't for those damn Yanks this war could have lasted another 10 years!'

One of those 'glad he's on our side' type of dudes.

Native American war trials were no joke.

Some trials required that the warrior collect 100 scalps from their enemies.

I hope he played the bagpipes while swinging the sword

I bet doing crazy shit gave you an advantage back in those days.

Like, would you rather shoot at the people who are shooting back at you, or waste bullets trying to hit the people who looked like they took a heavy dose of heroine before hitting the battlefield...

I don't know about you, but if I see someone easy to shoot, I'm gonna shoot them first. A guy running at you is likely to lob a grenade right into your position.

If anything, shooting the guy playing bagpipes would be a morale boost to the rest of the enemy soldiers

I wonder if he was the inspiration for the Scotsman from Samurai Jack.

This guy sounds like a moron. An estimated 50 million people died and he wishes the war went on another decade so millions more would have died. Not to mention the fact that had America not entered the war the Germans would have won and he would be dead and his homeland in ruins. It's believed that had the Germans not been defeated when they were they would have developed the atomic bomb for themselves in 1946, that's how close they were. And if that had happened then every major Allied city would be a smoking crater.
