*Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than yourself.
*Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.
*Five second fuses always burn three seconds.
*If you are short of everything but the enemy, you are in the combat zone.
*No combat ready unit has ever passed inspection.
*No inspection ready unit has ever passed combat.
* If the enemy is within range, so are you.
*Professional soldiers are predictable; the world is full of dangerous amateurs.
*Military Intelligence is a contradiction.
*Killing for peace is like screwing for virginity.
*The side with the simplest uniforms wins.
* Combat will occur on the ground between two adjoining maps.
*The most dangerous thing in the world is a Second Lieutenant with a map and a compass.
*The more a weapon costs, the farther you will have to send it away to be repaired.
*When you have sufficient supplies & ammo, the enemy takes 2 weeks to attack. When you are low on supplies & ammo the enemy decides to attack that night.
*Every command which can be misunderstood, will be.
*The more stupid the leader is, the more important missions he is ordered to carry out.
*Never tell the Platoon Sergeant you have nothing to do.
*No battle plan ever survives contact with the enemy.
*The most dangerous thing in the combat zone is an officer with a map.
*The quartermaster has only two sizes, too large and too small.
*There is nothing more satisfying that having someone take a shot at you, and miss.
*Never screw over a buddy; you'll never know when he could save your life.
*Complain about the rations all you want, but just remember; they could very well be your last meal.
*Medals are OK, but having your body and all your friends in one piece at the end of the day is better.
*Thousands of Veterans earned medals for bravery every day. A few were even awarded.
*Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
*If you survive the extraordinary things, it will often be the little things that will kill you.
