The current caption for WarIsHell (\\\"\\\'\\\'We\\\'re fighting them because they are fighting us because we are fighting them because...\\\'\\\'\\\") doesn\\\'t sound quite right to me. Unless I\\\'ve misunderstood the definitions, that seems to be an example of ForeverWar. WarIsHell is certainly appropriate for this work, but it should refer to the whole \\\"You may die in training. You\\\'ll probably die in service. If you do survive, you\\\'ll probably get sent out to die again. Any reward you earn will be worthless. And ultimately [[spoiler: the whole war was unnecessay]] theme.
There are a few other tropes that need mentioning, but I can\\\'t find an appropriate page for:
* The \\\"psychic overload\\\" that kills [[spoiler: Ho]] when they kill the [[spoiler: \\\"teddybears\\\"]]. More serious than a PsychicNosebleed, but not (physically) YourHeadAsplode. (That episode may almost be an ObligatoryWarCrime, except it probably doesn\\\'t count as they were (subsequently found out to be) really just animals.
* Military regulations (initially at least) \\\'\\\'requiring\\\'\\\' everyone to sleep with each other (might be too rare to be a trope, but its significant enough to the plot that it needs mentioning).
