You know, I've never had to think about it myself. I don't worry that I'll wake up in the rape ward if I get tipsy. Jail cell, maybe. A ditch, with blood in my hair...sure. A redneck militant bunker surrounded by trweaking hillbillies, fine, you got me.....but not raped. No one has ever said to me "if you drink to much you put yourself at risk of rape." "If you dress such and such a way you may be taken advantage of." Not the slightest implication of a shared burden.
Yet another thing that's not a thing in my life.
Yet another thing that's not a thing in my life.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
