In a counterfactual reality posited as precisely that? Yeah, makes perfect sense. Hell, that's what some god botherers in this reality actually believe. FWIW, I think that's a more genuine expression of a silly idea. At least theres some intellectual cover for it, as opposed to a ghost story. It may be that all of thse parts we see are artifical distinctions. Artifacts of categorization but not intervening in mere reality. That everything is all ultimately one indivisible thing distinguished in conceptual parts by degree but never kind.
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!
