“In a man-to-man fight, the winner is he who has one more round in his magazine.”
Erwin Rommel
His army incomparably holds, after long years, the abiding love of its surviving veterans. Who marched with it, fought with it, took part in its victories and defeats, shared its sufferings and joys; shall [never] be deaf when its deeds are sung, [nor] mute when rung out its plaudits!
Brig. Gen. G Moxley Sorrell, “Recollections of a Confederate Staff Officer”, 1905 M

Infantry Journal

Morgan Freeman

Lord Melbourne
Missing someone gets easier everyday because even though you are one day further from the last time you saw them, you are one day closer to the next time you will.
