Ah, success. Good show!
Now, let's change the subject a bit to your reference:
"An Army of One" (r)
It occurs to this old fellow who suffered under the concept "You are
nothing, Maggot, without the rest of the Maggots, etc" that the Army's
attempt at recruitment, aided and abetted undoubtedly by some Madison Avenue
girly-men who wouldn't know...well...a rifle from a gun, let's say...is a
bit confusing. To teach recruits that they are independent actors and/or
thinkers seems to go against the cannon-fodder concept that has served
armies so well for 5000 years.
Sgt: "Yo, Maggot, get your skinny white ass over there and help the rest of
the real men pull that landing mat into place!!!"
Recruit: "But Tharge, I am 'an Army of one', and I think I should be doing
thomething more creative right now."
Sgt: "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!!!!!!!!!!"
