"We don't give a toejam about fairness here. We're soldiers. Soldiers do not give the other guy a sporting chance. Soldiers shoot in the back, lay traps and ambushes, lie to the enemy and outnumber the other bastard every chance they get."

"When you can't blind them with brilliance, baffle them with roadkill" Unknown

 
Quote

"Whenever I see them ride on high, Gleaming and proud in the morning sky. Or lying awake in bed at night I hear them pass on their outward flight. I feel the mass of metal and guns, Delicate instruments, deadweight tons. Awkward, slow, bomb racks full Straining away from downward pull, Straining away from home and base. And try to see the pilot's face. I imagine a boy who's just left school, On whose quick-learned skill and courage cool, Depend the lives of the men in his crew And success of the job they have to do. And something happens to me inside That is deeper than grief, greater than pride. And though there is nothing I can say, I always look up as they go their way, And care and pray for every one, And steel my heart to say, "Thy will be done."

The Bombers - Sarah Churchill, daughter of Sir Winston Churchill

Churchill: If I were your husband, dear, I'd drink it.
