"**Those days in the woods saved my life many a time in combat. **The safest place in Korea was behind a platoon of Marines. Lord how they could fight. The Reds told us they were afraid to tangle with the Marines and avoided them when they could be located. **I'll take care of my men first. Frozen troops can't fight. If we run out of ammunition, we'll go to the bayonet. **Great, now we can shoot at those bastards from every direction. **Pain is weakness leaving the body. **Where the hell do you put the bayonet? **Take me to the brig, I want to see the real Marines." Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller
