Prisoner of War guard companies, or an equivalent organization, should be as far forward as possible in action to take over prisoners of war, because troops heated with battle are not safe custodians. Any attempt to rob or loot prisoners of war by escorts must be dealt strictly with.

The fixed determination to have acquired the warrior soul, to either conquer or perish with honor, is the secret of victory.

The duties of an officer are the safety, honor, and welfare of your country first; the honor, welfare, and comfort of the men in your command second; and the officer s own ease, comfort, and safety last.

Remember wars are won by killing people. The more we kill, the quicker we'll get out of this war.

To be a successful soldier you must know history. . . . What you must know is how man reacts. Weapons change but man who uses them changes not at all. To win battles you do not beat weapons - you beat the soul of man of the enemy man.

A man must know his destiny. if he does not recognize it, then he is lost.

When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead!
