"The witch Haggis was able to summon a demonic monster called Pumpkinhead, a monster that was buried in a pumpkin patch grave. Once summoned, Pumpkinhead would torture and kill its victims. The person who summoned Pumpkinhead would then have the ability to "see" visions of Pumpkinhead's torture and execution. Pumpkinhead looks truly demonic, and the fact that he'll torture you for a bit before finally executing you makes you prefer a monster that would just bite your head off and get the whole thing over with."
Good stuff..however

This little gem was unfortunately part of my very early childhood library. So, it's inspired a lifelong love affair with the myth.
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!
