Citizen Soldier, Chemicals, Values

The soldier is the Army. No army is better than its soldiers. The Soldier is also a citizen. In fact, the highest obligation and privilege of citizenship is that of bearing arms for one's country.
~ George S. Patton Jr.

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
ingredient in beer.
~ Dave Barry

On my honor, I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country.
~ Boy Scouts of America

"For a good portion of 'modern' history, most local water was so bad that people avoided drinking it... instead looking to fermented beverages (aka beer and wine) to slake their thirst. This is part the basis for the naval tradition of a daily allotment of grog. Also made their lot in life seem a bit less tragic.
