All of mathematics invented, so before it was invented, what happened when you added x cows to x cows? Nothing? It's like asking if red was invented. Was red something else before someone named it red? Is your word red the actual thing we're referring to when we say red? We're obviously quite capable of producing (inventing) concepts for things which are not the things themselves but are nevertheless tied at the hip in some way (though we're clearly just as competent at divorcing the concept from the thing to which it refers).
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!
