Strengthen my soul so that the weakening instinct of self-preservation, which besets all of us in battle, shall not blind me to my duty to my own manhood, to the glory of my calling, and to my responsibility to my fellow soldiers. Grant to our armed forces that disciplined valor and mutual confidence which insures success in war. Let me not mourn for the men who have died fighting, but rather let me be glad that such heroes have lived. If it be my lot to die, let me do so with courage and honor in a manner which will bring the greatest harm to the enemy, and please, oh Lord, protect and guide those I shall leave behind. Give us the victory, Lord.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Military justice is to justice what military music is to music. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23667]]></link><description><![CDATA[Military justice is to justice what military music is to music.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23667</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will either find a way, or make one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21196]]></link><description><![CDATA[We will either find a way, or make one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21196</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.
