The quote below was sent to me by another Jar Head (PG) I wanted to share.

I have been preaching exactly the same thing for years. To start with, if possible, we should try to prevent any type of military confrontations.  If we are pulled into a situation it should be our mission to fight a war like a war should be fought and that is to win by any means necessary.

The Will to Win

Unless you are willing to be as unreasonable and as brutal, as your enemy, do not engage him in a conflict — because he will win. This old leatherneck says it better.
Quote from a WWII veteran overhearing someone say that `You can’t bomb an ideology.”:

“The hell you can’t, because we did it. These Muslims are no different than the [Imperial] Japanese. The Japs had their suicide bombers too. And we stopped them.
