You need to overcome the tug of people against you as you reach for high goals.

Duty is the essence of manhood.

There is only one tactical principle which is not subject to change. It is to use the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wound, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time.

It is absurd to believe that soldiers who cannot be made to wear the proper uniform can be induced to move forward in battle. Officers who fail to perform their duty by correcting small violations and in enforcing proper conduct are incapable of leading.

The only way you get on in this profession is to have the reputation of doing what you are told as thoroughly as possible.

Do as I have taught you, and you will stay alive.

I am a Soldier, I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight.
