Meh, I spent a lot of time diving into OTO and Golden Dawn, biographies of the notables etc, and at the end of the rabbit hole I realized it was just a bunch of well to do-s playing dress up. Wasn't expecting to find the supernatural, but I hoped that they at least used the supernatural as a sort of placeholder for a workable path to self awareness or self improvement. Me hostile is me with a weapon, I'm just keeping the ceiling of sanity on the conversation at this point..hehehe. You know what I think keeps things like this alive? The artwork. They have such a rich body of symbols and sigils to fill books with. I never get tired of those. Eighty some odd bucks a pop though? Well now they're just mugging people, I am feeling a little hostile about that.
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!
