I mean an Army of one seemed stupid, but maybe they were trying to apeal to the teen gamer, make him think he will be rambo or something but...



Army Strong?

What are we cave men? Army strong, food good, women good Zug zug?


Army strong!



Maybe they should hire the Marine marketing guy.

"An army of one" always appealed to me quite a bit.  "Army strong" just sounds like something retarded a DI makes you grunt when you're doing pushups.

Every time I heard "An army of one" I couldn't help but think of Patton rolling over in his grave.

He was a marine wasn't he? I woulda thought a marine would fall on his own bayonet before becoming a mouthpiece for the army?

Yea but for the right price

Money talks and all that good stuff.


What they need to do is apeal to all the gangbangers to join up.

Then we culd kill two birds with one stone so's to speak.

I guess it's a good thing none of you work on Madison Ave. Read yesterday that the army exceeded their recruitment goal for the third quarter. So they must be doing something right.
