“As you know, you go to war with the Army you have. They're not the Army you might want or wish to have at a later time.”
Donald Rumsfeld
“The Swiss have an interesting army. Five hundred years without a war. Pretty impressive. Also pretty lucky for them. Ever see that little Swiss Army knife they have to fight with? Not much of a weapon there. Corkscrews, Bottle openers. 'Come on, buddy, let's go. You get past me, the guy in back of me, he's got a spoon. Back off. I've got the toe clippers right here.”
Jerry Seinfeld
“Secret operations are essential in war; upon them the army relies to make its every move.”
Sun Tzu
“A great war leaves the country with three armies - an army of cripples, an army of mourners, and an army of thieves”
German Proverb
“Where are they now that we, the men whom they sent off to war, have returned? These are commanders who have deserted their troops, and there is no more serious crime in the law of war. The Army says they never leave their wounded. The Marines say they never leave even their dead. These men have left all the casualties and retreated behind a pious shield of public rectitude. They have left the real stuff of their reputation bleaching behind them in the sun in this country.”
Senator John Kerry
“These are war veterans who fought for their country, and the army also has war veterans in it,”
Robert Mugabe
“One of the problems a modern army faces is that war fighters have to carry around a lot of electrical devices and heavy batteries,”
Joel Davis
