Don't forget nothing. Have your musket clean as a whistle, hatchet scoured, 60 rounds powder and ball and be ready to march at a minute's warning. When you're on the march, act the way you would if you was sneaking up on a deer. See the enemy first. Tell the truth about what you see and what you do. There is an army depending on us for correct information. You can lie all you please when you tell other folks about the Rangers, but don't never lie to a Ranger or officer. Don't never take a chance you don't have to. When we're on the march, we march single file, far enough apart so one shot can't go through two men. If we strike swamps or soft ground, we spread out abreast, so it's hard to track us. When we march, we keep moving till dark, so as to give the enemy the least possible chance at us. When we camp, half the party stays awake while the other half sleeps. If we take prisoners, we keep 'em separate till we have had time to examine them, so they can't cook up a story between 'em. Don't ever march home the same way. Take a different route so you won't be ambushed. No matter whether we travel in big parties or little ones, each party has to keep a scout 20 yards ahead, 20 yards on each flank and 20 yards in the rear, so the main body can't be surprised and wiped out. Every night you'll be told where to meet if surrounded by a superior force. Don't sit down to eat without posting sentries. Don't sleep beyond dawn. Dawn's when the French and Indians attack. Don't cross a river by a regular ford. If somebody's trailing you, make a circle, come back onto your own tracks, and ambush the folks that aim to ambush you. Don't stand up when the enemy's coming against you. Kneel down, lie down, hide behind a tree. Let the enemy come till he's almost close enough to touch. Then let him have it and jump out and finish him with your hatchet.
Don't see folks bringing up the socialist crap that Wilson tried to pull off in his time.. FDR just mirrored what Wilson tried..
If you are trying to make funny about a serious problem, please use the "warning sarcasm" imogie or something to be sure folks with strong emotions about the issue know you are joking. PLEASE.
To me that is just SO WRONG, because most military members vote by absentee ballot while on active duty and deployed! Who more has fully earned the right to vote and have their ballot county? Most certainly NOT ILLEGALS, INCARCERATED CRIMINALS, THE DEAD ...... I have opinions about a whole lot more of the idiot voter base, and those who are eligible to vote but don't, but I will leave that alone. Each individual Citizen has the right to their own opinion and are responsible for their own actions, right wrong or whatever.
Emphasize, italicize and bold "CITIZEN". Born or naturalized, I don't care, as long as the privileges, duties, and responsibilities are exercised.
You know, I think I read this. Does it talk about the 100,000+ Americans that Stalin killed within the USSR? It was an interesting tidbit of history as during the depression Stalin invited Americans over who had experience and training in manufacturing to industrialize the Soviet Union. Things went bad and they slowly started disappearing yet the American Embassy under FDR simply ignore it. There is a story how a person stood outside the US Embassy in Moscow and shoving a note into the Ambassador's hand saying something like, "They are killing us!" The US Embassy/FDR did nor said nothing... FDR...the crimes he committed are so numerous and outrageous that most people can't believe them and the history books don't even begin to scratch the surface of them...but that's a whole other topic.
