According to the tradition that Frodo belongs too, more accurately. Plenty of people claim that there are mountains of credible scientific evidence for god and the innerrancy of scripture. The only reason that Frodo likes his particular platitude over theirs is that he feels that it excuses him from providing something he does not have in his possession. The god proposition, to him, doesn't require evidence, and "there can be none". Well, gl with that. It's a not so clever way of saying "Unless you take my claims at face value without scrutiny this is all obvious bullshit". Works for him though.
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!
