I never thought about it either until someone mentioned it to me. I had always assumed "fair fights" and bullet warfare, but then I was enlightened on how utterly brutal combat actually is. There is no such thing as fighting like a girl, there is only winning no matter what it takes to survive. Poke the eyes, pull the hair, kick the nuts, these are all no-no's in sportsmanship.
But war is not a sport.
