It's a sad things when civilians are killed, but in situations like this, shit happens. If you are with a group who are carrying weapons and appear to be working together, you probably should not go to a knee, peak around the corner of a building, and point a long camera lens a Bradleys.
As far as the coolness in the piolet's voices. So the hell what. That is their job. I'm sure they've had plenty of friends shot at or even killed during their tour. They are the ones who have to live with it, not some ass hat watching twitter from his living room.
These folks trained for years before working the Apaches. They're well versed on the rules of war and work hard at what they do. War is ugly and this is nothing new. In WWII we fire bombed German cities. It was nasty but effective. I guess the outcry wasn't what it is today because we didn't have so many sheltered folks watching it on Twitter and throwing out world wide uneducated opinions.
