Some young soldiers(士兵) who had recently joined the army were being trained in modern ways of fighting in the open air, near their camp. One of the things they were shown was how an unarmed(没有装备的) man could take the enemy's weapon (武器) away from him. First, two of their instructors(指导者) took a knife away from the other, using only his hands, and then he took a gun away from him in the same way.

In the next lesson, the soldiers were trained to do something else. Before the new training began, the third instructor asked them a number of questions to see how well they had understood what they had been shown in the last lesson. One of the questions was this, "Well, you now know what an unarmed man can do against a man with a gun. Now imagine that you have a gun and now you are in defense of a bridge for its safety. Suddenly, you see an unarmed enemy soldier coming towards you. What will you do?"

A young soldier, Thomas, who had to answer this question thought carefully for a few seconds and then said, “Well, after what I have just seen, I think so that the unarmed enemy soldier can't take it away from me and kill me with it."
