Stories like that also betray how little of their own history these people were privy to. We hear so much about lineage, oral history, tradition when narratives like this are invoked. These people clearly had no such thing if they needed to invent such bullshit. They imagined a life at the "dawn of time" that was no different than their own. They had no clue what their ancestors had done, how they had lived, where they had lived, and just look at how completely unimaginative some of these stories they filled that gap with are in actuality......
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!
