    "Well, well, well, well. I'm here to tell you that life as you knew it has ended. You all may as well go into town tonight. You may as well laugh and make fools out of yourselves. Rub your pathetic little peckers against your honies or stick it in a knothole in the fence but whatever it is, get rid of it. Because at 0600 tomorrow your * is mine."

    It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

    The bulldozer part in Grenada was semi-real. My old battalion commander was the mastermind behind it. He was a captain, leading a ranger company in Grenada and used the dozer against a position.

    Helluva good commander. Led from the front.

    John P. Abizaid. I was in the 3/325 ABCT in Vicenza, Italy with him as our Battalion Commander.

    He went on to be a 4 star. Good guy.

    Sorry, I guess things weigh heavier on a woman than getting shot at.

    One other part that struck home was placing a Field Grade Officer that had no experience in command of an infantry unit.
    This is called square filling and IMHO it can be detrimental.
