Some Day I'd Like To

Our Artillery... The Germans Feared It Almost More Than Anything We Had.

Some Day I'd Like To Cover A War In A Country As Ugly As War Itself.

For Me War Has Become A Flat, Black Depression Without Highlights, A Revulsion Of The Mind And An Exhaustion Of The Spirit.

Marines Have A Cynical Approach To War. They Believe In Three Things; Liberty, Payday And That When Two Marines Are Together In A Fight, One Is Being Wasted. Being A Minority Group Militarily, They Are Proud And Sensitive In Their Dealings With Other Military Organizations. A Marine's Concept Of A Perfect Battle Is To Have Other Marines On The Right And Left Flanks, Marine Aircraft Overhead And Marine Artillery And Naval Gunfire Backing Them Up.

The Front-line Soldier Wants It To Be Got Over By The Physical Process Of His Destroying Enough Germans To End It. He Is Truly At War. The Rest Of Us, No Matter How Hard We Work, Are Not.
