1. You do know what that means, don't you?
The failed Iraq!

I know Germany wasn't ever with us, but I think this portrays much of the European opinion.

3. Why is he praying to a gun?
Is this some ritual to Ares, bring me strength and victory in battle?

4. You probably said that tongue in cheek
but he's just praying. Most likely NOT to the gun.

6. Major boo-boo.
This is how the active duty soldiers honor their dead ones. Set up a place with the dead wo/man's boots and gun and members of his/her unit come to pay their respects.

Meanwhile the body goes to the combat morgue.
