Many years ago, as a cadet hoping some day to be an officer, I was poring over
“The Principles of War,” listed in the old Field Service Regulations, when the
Sergeant-Major came upon me. He surveyed me with kindly amusement.
“Don’t bother your head about all them things, me lad,” he said. “There’s only
one principle of war and that’s this. Hit the other fellow, as quick as you can,
and as hard as you can, where it hurts him most, when he ain’t looking!”

- WWII Field-Marshal Sir William Slim, Defeat into Victory, pp. 550-551

Never show signs of fear in combat – if you go into a panic, the other men near
you may be scared enough to follow your example. Remember that you belong
to a team, and other men are depending on you. You will have to take risks to
help your buddy; he will do the same for you. Veterans also stress that
coolness is contagious. If one man behaves calmly in a dangerous situation,
the sight is a tonic to the others. What they need is leadership by example – it
helps them to do their job better.

Communications are your key to control. Once a combat operation is in
progress, your ability to communicate measures the amount of control you can
exercise over the subordinate elements of your unit. In a firefight, your ability
to communicate usually determines the amount of support (artillery, air,
medical, supply) you will get when and where you need it… Your
communications equipment is your lifeline in combat; check, test and inspect it
frequently, and particularly before any combat operations… Don’t depend
entirely on any one means of communication; plan for alternate, secondary and
emergency means.

It is by the fighting man’s determination and “guts” that the

enemy is conquered in close combat. It is this man, more that
the machines of war, who brings success in battle.

 ARMY SONG
First to fight for the right, and to build the Nation’s
Might,
And the Army Goes Rolling Along
Proud of all we have done,
Fighting till the battle’s won,
And the Army Goes Rolling Along,

Then it’s hi, hi, hey! The Army’s on it’s way

Count off the cadence loud and strong
(two, three)
For wherever we go, you will always know
That the Army goes Rolling Along

Valley Forge, Custer’s ranks, San Juan Hill and

Patton’s tanks,
And the Army went rolling alone.
Minute men from the start,
Always fighting from the heart,
And the Army keeps rolling alone.

Then it’s hi, hi, hey! The Army on its way

Count off the cadence loud and strong (two, three)
For wherever we go, you will always know
That the Army Goes Rolling Along
