Our calendar ends on a certain day every year yet "the world", true bastard that it is, never has the decency to off itself in accordance with our wishes. You know there's something to the notion of our own selfishness and fear of death driving "end of the world" claims. The end is always in the claimants lifetime, it's as if they truly hope that everyone clocks out the same time as them. If they don't get to continue the party no one else should either. Better that we all die in a fire than someone outlive me, eh?
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!
