Pretty common for servicemen overseas to express insensitive positions in direct relation to how new they were. Even if a persons perceptions weren't qualitatively improved by the constant, mostly negative interactions. Some people still thought the other guy was terrible, for example...but at least the perception would be more accurate by reference to that experience.
I guess that guy is sort of the holy grail for turnaround on an issue...but the world could make do with much, much less than that. Talkin bout people here, gotta aim lower.

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!
