That's what supporting the troops is really all about - making sure American grunts get the right stuff!

Everyone knows what can happen to soldiers who are in front line units.

When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.

We started at once to dig our trenches, half of my platoon stepping forward abreast, the men being placed an arm's length apart. After laying their rifles down, barrels pointing to the enemy, a line was drawn behind the row of rifles and parallel to it.

It is always disarming to treat with the enemy, so to speak.

When envoys are sent with compliments in their mouths, it is a sign that the enemy wishes for a truce.

Like the American soldiers who went before them, they are putting their lives on the line to protect ours.

Soldiers willingly, sometimes foolishly, risk their own lives to keep their comrades out of enemy hands.

Every day without fail one should consider himself as dead. There is a saying of the elders that goes, 'Step from under the eaves and you're a dead man. Leave the gate and the enemy is waiting.' This is not a matter of being careful. It is to consider oneself as dead beforehand.
