Actual Military Warnings
"Aim towards the Enemy." -
- Instruction printed on US Rocket Launcher
"When the pin is pulled,
Mr. Grenade is not our friend."
- US Army

The bombs are guaranteed to always hit the ground."
- USAF Ammo Troop
"If the enemy is in range, so are you."
- Infantry Journal
"A slipping gear could let your M203 grenade launcher fire when you least expect it. That would make you quite unpopular in what's left of your unit."
- Army's magazine of preventive maintenance.
"It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed."
- US Air Force Manual
"Try to look unimportant;
they may be low on ammo." -
- Infantry Journal
"Tracers work both ways."
- US Army Ordnance
"Five-second fuses only last three seconds." -
- Infantry Journal
"Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid."
- Col. David Hackworth
"If your attack is going too well,
you're probably walking into an ambush." -
- Infantry Journal
"No combat-ready unit has ever passed inspection." -
"Any ship can be a minesweeper ... once." -
- Anon
"Never tell the Platoon Sergeant
you have nothing to do." -
- Unknown Army Recruit
"Don't draw fire;
it irritates the people around you." -
- Your Buddies
And lastly...
"If you see a bomb technician running,
try to keep up with him." -
- USA Ammo Troop _________________
Prayer for the Troops in Iraq
Dear Lord, please hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them, Father, as they protect us. When they are tired, give them strength and rest. If they are wounded, Father, give them comfort. When they are lonely, may they feel You near them. Grant them strength, courage, and wisdom for their tasks. And, Lord, uplift and strengthen the families and loved ones who wait for their return. Please, Father, bring a quick end to all this conflict. I pray in the name of Jesus, our Saviour. Amen.
