I've always had a giggle at the notion of stupid people offing themselves somehow being a way for nature to winnow out the less than fit. Stupid isn't something that nature commonly selects against, and often enough these idiotic things that people do will hurt others as much as themselves. So, where's the benefit, how is this survival of the fittest? People failing to exercise an ounce of sense is a human problem, which can be solved by human beings, and in no way can be excused by "survival of the fittest".
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!
