A picture is worth a thousand words.
It is not the troops on the ground who make a war. Indeed, most would want nothing more than to find a sunbeam that a cat has already claimed, and simply exist in peace.
If there is any question, chances are extremely high that this soldier has live ammunition in his magazine… Small hints at him having loaded rounds are the duct-tape around his magazine (which is almost always used to attach two magazines together; if one magazine is emptied, it is much faster to get to a full one without having to dig through pockets), the distinct lack of ironing creases on his uniform, and the unpolished boots.
Except for the uniform being a couple decades too old to be modern US, he looks exactly like a soldier I knew while I was serving.
