We can't really know what is inside another man's head,...but...
I think you are projecting your good judgement on to Joe.
Joe was reckless.
In the action for which he was awarded the medal of honor:
he was AWOL from the hospital with previous wounds
he was wounded seven times and would not leave the field until he passed out from a loss of blood.
I don't say this as any kind of criticism, Joe truly disregarded his own safety.
"They didn't finish me off so I kept fighting"
By the way, I apologize for introducing Joe to this thread.
I first read it as the most important mental skill for the use of firearms.
Safety first on any range.
