The surest way to become a pacifist is to join the infantry.

(1921 – 2003) American editorial cartoonist

Tracers work BOTH ways.

Admiral: A general at sea.

If you are forward of your position, the artillery will fall short.

The enemy never monitors your radio frequency until you broadcast on an unsecured channel.

If enough data is collected, a board of inquiry can prove anything.

Another such victory, and we are undone.

(318 – 272 BC) Greek general & statesman

Without discipline the Army would just be a bunch of guys wearing the same color clothing.

(1939 – 2000) American actor

If the enemy is in range, so are you!

The enemy invariably attacks on one of two occasions:
1. When you’re ready for them. 2. When you’re not ready for them.

The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.

If you take more than your fair share of objectives, you will have more than your fair share to take.

All-weather close air support doesn't work in bad weather.

Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons!

The buddy system is essential to your survival; it gives the enemy somebody else to shoot at.

Friendly fire – isn’t.

Friendly fire — isn't.

Never worry about the bullet with your name on it; instead, worry about shrapnel addressed to 'occupant.’

Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you are.

Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you.

Don’t look conspicuous – in the combat, it draws fire; out of the combat zone, it draws sergeants.
