Abstract
<p>Military history and labour history have long stood at odds with each other. Throughout the past, military forces have generally specialised in destructive practices, focusing on the <i>destruction</i> of an "enemy," and including in that purview the destruction of physical structures, social structures, and variably intentionally and unintentionally, the livelihoods of people within those structures.</p>
