One of my troopers tried that on me. I replied with Vincent Price's comment to Peter Lorie about how they had fun when they were children.

Okay...

The problem I have with any sort of "belief system" like this is how it's all or nothing. I don't have any use for that. I prefer to take out good ideas from everything where I see them, and discard the rest.

Hippy re-imagining of native religious structure.
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!

You want authentic or knock-off. The lnock-offs are quite abundant.

They are, in places. Ever diminishing places. Europeans have been here for hundreds of years, and kids will pick up things like arrowheads. However, except for small design differences, they're just like arrowheads found in England and Bali.
