To summarize, a hopelessly decent american human being - only half a step removed from the trees and intriduced to us as an expert thrower of clubs.....through pluck and daring single-handedly annihilates a vast and powerful galactic empire taking only minor breaks to "save" his girlfirned (his only weakness being common human decency). I read that shit honestly rooting for the Psychlos (and truthfully, if it weren't for the really well developed aliens, including the banker species...I couldn;t have stood 100 pages of it).
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!
