Aemond led a force of 4,000 men in total out of King's Landing, also led by Ser Criston Cole of the Kingsguard, now Hand of the King. Aegon II, Aemond, and Criston had previously led an army of slightly less than 3,000 to the Battle at Rook's Rest, where they lost some 800 men. While in King's Landing Aemond reconstituted his forces and sent forth all their remaining strength for the advance on Harrenhal.

The event started off small with just 15 chefs and a handful of ranches and has soared in popularity since. In 2019, at the last Butcher’s Ball event, there were more than 2,000 people showcasing close to 100 different culinary delights. All for a Good Cause America’s continuing experience at war has contributed to technological advances and furthered the science of military medicine. However, we can and should celebrate that fact while simultaneously exploring its effect on the national conscience. If a consistently growing percentage of combat casualties survive, what impact does that have on the American public’s will for a war to either continue or end? Theoretically, war should inflict a degree of pain on two or more opposing sides, making conflict the least desirable means to achieve foreign policy. Ideally, the pain inflicted will be more significant to an adversary, leading to a successful outcome and a peaceful settlement. However, will war become the norm and not the exception some of that pain is muted? After the battle, Ser Garibald Grey remarked, "Today was butchery, not battle." Upon hearing Garibald's observation, Mushroom began calling the slaughter the Butcher's Ball. [1]Through a monumental feat of science and technology, modern military medicine has created conditions where survival from battlefield injury is almost an expectation. This is an extraordinary achievement from a human perspective, and presents a decisive strategic advantage for the United States. But we must also contemplate the downstream effects of medical innovation. The first is the care of our veterans. Specifically, how will we care for a growing population of surviving combat-wounded? What resources will be in place before we engage in conflict to ensure that our servicemembers are appropriately cared for when they return? The success of trauma management is often viewed in the context of acute injuries, and rarely are long-term concerns a priority in the acute setting. The care and cost must be a factor as we plan for war. Maas, Jennifer (February 16, 2022). " The Boys: Diabolical Trailer: Simon Pegg Finally Plays Hughie Campbell". Variety .

However, the 1864 performance of Lee’s army during the strategically and tactically defensive (for Lee) Overland Campaign (including its imposition of massive casualties on the enemy) was achieved by an army that was a mere shadow of the one Lee took command of on June 1, 1862. That 1864 success was due primarily to the fact that Lee had finally been forced to fight on the defensive, and it provides some insight into how successful he might have been in 1862 and 1863 if he had avoided the frontal assaults at Seven Days’ (especially Malvern Hill), the latter days at Chancellorsville and the final two days of the battle at Gettysburg.

Although the financial burden of war is an essential element in the equation, this reflection will focus on the human toll of conflict and examine how military medicine is changing the calculus for modern warfare. In an era of deficit spending and unbalanced budgets, war’s financial impact is treated more and more as just a number. Likewise but for very different reasons, measuring bloodshed gives an increasingly skewed picture of the actual costs of war. This is because modern military medicine has spared many of the lives that would have been lost in any other war in history—undoubtedly a virtuous outcome, but one that has also largely shielded Americans from the grief, suffering, and ugly realities of war. In this very specific way, military medicine has numbed the American conscience. Butcher meets Grace at a memorial shrine for the 59 apartment tenants who were killed by Stormfront. She explains to Butcher that she has a reoccurring dream: She is onstage at Carnegie Hall and everyone who got killed by a Supe is in the audience staring at her. She then gives Butcher information on an eyewitness who knows about Liberty and tells him to give it to Mother's Milk. She also gives Butcher Becca's location. Confused, Butcher asks why give it to him if he failed to deliver the terrorist. Mallory apologizes to Butcher, that she's sorry that she was the reason Butcher stopped searching for Becca by replacing it with a vendetta against Homelander. Grace expresses that she would like to have "one less audience member staring at her". Unaware of these developments, Aemond and Criston's host advanced northwest to Harrenhal. They faced little opposition, only to find the castle abandoned. Red Robb Rivers shot down messenger-ravens from the Lannister army to the west warning of their imminent destruction, so news of the twin disasters only arrived at Harrenhal after it was already too late.If you’re a fan of Texas BBQ and pit-cooking, the Open Fire Farm & Ranch Showcase is where local producers and culinary professionals gather to present local meats cooked over an open flame. If the national will for war hinges on the balance of blood and treasure, but neither are consequential in modern warfare, what is the new calculus of war? This question challenges our current understanding of conflict. If the nature of war, as suggested by Carl von Clausewitz, rests in the balance of three dominant tendencies—which are connected to three sets of human actors: the people, their government, and their military—what is the influence if one of these becomes disengaged? In the ideal state, this “remarkable trinity” lies in a frantic balance, adjusting force as influences alter political aims in response to society’s changing desires. Therefore, the equilibrium exists in the dominant forces’ balance and counterbalance of influences that shape outcomes. For that equilibrium to hold requires participation, however. What is the threat if the people become disengaged, or worse, become apathetic to war?

Texans with a special love for sustainably raised meats are grinning ear to ear, eagerly waiting for the fifth annual Butcher’s Ball. After assuming command of the Army of Northern Virginia on June 1, 1862, Lee would fight that army aggressively—too aggressively—until its surrender at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865. Within a month, Lee achieved a great strategic victory during the Seven Days’ Campaign when he drove the weak and indecisive George B. McClellan and his Army of the Potomac away from Richmond. Although Lee had achieved his strategic goal after a day or two, he kept frontally assaulting the enemy for several more days. As a result, his own army incurred 20,000 casualties, compared to 16,000 for McClellan. Pictures of flag-draped caskets provoke the US national conscience. Seeing this poignant representation of combat mortality causes the nation to pause, even if only for a moment, and reflect on the price of war through lost lives. High mortality challenges citizens to evaluate the necessity of conflict and may ultimately influence the methods chosen to achieve desired ends. In no small way, battlefield deaths serve as a litmus test for a nation, measuring its will to either continue in battle or end a conflict. High mortality may not predict the war’s end; however, it forces a citizenry to engage with important questions, creating a layer of friction formed of public debate that impedes the continuation of a war beyond acceptable costs.

Lee ignored the realities: that the Confederacy only needed a stalemate, and it was outnumbered by nearly 4- to-1 in white men of fighting age. He unnecessarily initiated strategic and tactical offensives in the face of the defensive dominance of new weaponry. He suffered an amazing 209,000 casualties in a losing cause in a single theater, and thereby fatally weakened his own and other Rebel armies, thereby losing the war. Like all good satire, it successfully bridges the gap between light-hearted fantasy and reality. Definitely more Yes, Prime Minister than Private Eye, and all the more entertaining for that.
