Meh, I'm with you on the crossing. Not just any old raft would do. Playing the devils advocate I suppose. Still have to deal with what evidence we have though, dugouts before skin boats. Covered decks, such as kayaks, we find much later, and on the other side of the continent, which is problematic. Some of the oldest baskets we have ( a similar type of technology when you think about it) are only 5000 years old (just found some links to fragments that are possibly 6000 years old). We'd be pushing a lot of things way back to make it fit. That's uncomfortable to me.
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!
