Meh. The weirdest bit is that Moby Dick was absolutely and without a doubt based on real events in the authors own time with vast economic implications - but, apparently, that's not good enough...and at the same time, too much. The jesus story, less established and more fanciful, is both true and just right, somehow. It's not fair to compare the one to the other, even though Moby Dick would be a profitable comparison to christers and their own white whale.
Ooookay, then?
Ooookay, then?
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!
