I thought some of you would be interested in this from the BBC,link text its a history of conflicts from more of a sonic perspective. The sounds of conflict are obviously some of the most powewrful sounds that man has made and get lodged in the memory whether you are a civillian or soldier as a matter of survival. When my grandad came back from the war for many years he would dive to the ground if he heard a car backfire and I am sure many involved in todays wars are in many ways affected just as much by the sonic aspect as the visual.
