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

(1921 – 2003) American editorial cartoonist

Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid.

Armies aren't known for neatness.

David Gerrold (1944 – ) science fiction author

A retreating enemy is probably just falling back and regrouping.

Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.

Try to look unimportant, because the bad guys may be low on ammo and not want to waste a bullet on you.

The Cavalry doesn’t always come to the rescue.

No one ever carries too much ammo.

Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you.

Professional soldiers are predictable, but the world is full of amateurs.

Neutral countries – aren’t.

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

The one item you need is always in short supply.

Never trust a private with a loaded weapon, or an officer with a map and compass.

Military Expert: One who tells you what’s going to happen tomorrow – then tells you why it didn’t.

The only time suppressive fire works is when it is used on abandoned positions.

Field experience is something you never get until just after you need it.

No matter which way you have to march, its always uphill.

The enemy never watches until you make a mistake.

A Purple Heart just proves that were you smart enough to think of a plan, stupid enough to try it, and lucky enough to survive.

Density of fire increases proportionally to the curiousness of the target.
