And that's just off the top of my head.Common misconception, those guys were assholes to each other same as we are. Had we not interfered right at the calcifying moment for the 5 Nations (just one example, there are others) we may well have stumbled upon a veritable native american empire not but a few short years later. Most native american cultures had a very thorough and rigid social system...and exploitation of others (and environment/resources) was particularly pronounced in the NE (where there was opportunity to do so).
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!
