The authors' attitude towards war is negative: war is wasteful and takes advantage of man's hunger for glory.
1. Both Crane's and Bierce's stories show that war is wasteful; men often die in vain, without achieving an honorable objective.
2. Men who seek glory take unnecessary risks for the wrong reasons.
3. In some stories, the authors suggest that even men who survive live wasted lives because they can never forget the horrors of war.
