soldiers and war

I feel the media portrays soldiers to be jacked hot headed idoits, that are amazing at fighting, not scared of anything, kind of like a real bad ass. I feel the portray war to be bloody and gory, and that only the amaricans are the good guys, and everyone else is the bad guys.In the poem "Dulce et Decorum Est" by wilfred owen. They portray war to be brutal, scary, men at there worst, painfull. They portary the soldiers to be brave, and mentally strong. i believe this poem is more true about war then what the media portrays.
