        "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.

              Recorded it and watched it tonight,
              What stuck in my mind was the speech by the Estonian PM?. Where he spoke about past occupation, and said
              " Next time we will not go quietly "
              Also the British camo seems to work in most environments.

                we have a lot of Reserve Riflemen out there too.

                infact, our 'Annual Camp' this year was 2 weeks in Estonia on the NATO mission.
