Tanks are new and special weapon-newer than, as special, and certainly as valuable as the airplane.

It is rather interesting how you get used to death.

Never in history has the navy landed an army at the planned time and place. But if you land us anywhere within 50 miles of Fedela and within 1 week of D-Day. I'll go ahead and win.

No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.

Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood.

If I win I can't be stopped! If I lose I shall be dead.

You're never beaten until you admit it
