You get issued the MTP core UBACS for out there??"Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.

'Unselfishly so we might have today!'
Like hell! He fought because he had to fight;
He died that's all. It was his unlucky night.

If you make it to Colorado, let me know..."On the plains of hesitation, bleach the bones of countless millions, who on the very dawn of victory, laid down to rest, and in resting died.
Never give up!!"

They do like their military, I remember accompanying my Brother In Law (Captain in the National Guard) to places, and instant respect (and discount) on production of forces ID. This was before 9/11 as well!'He died who loved to live,' they'll say,

As I once heard an STD lecture start from an old and bold MO (delivered in what could only be described as a patrician drawl) "Some of you would stick your cock where I wouldn't dream of putting the ferrule of my umbrella"...'He died who loved to live,' they'll say,
'Unselfishly so we might have today!'

It was the year of rebirth...the year of great sadness...the year of pain...and the year of joy.
It was a new age...It was the end of history.
It was the year everything changed.
