Everybody thinks they’re gonna get a chance to punch some Nazi in the face at Normandy and those days are over, they are long gone.

We shall go always a little further,
it may be beyond the last blue mountain barred with snow,
Across that angry or glimmering sea..."

Assuming I was right I´ll have to get a question up now as I have limited time. info


I´ll give you lot a few to work with.

First one:
Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.

Who and where?

Second, my sig line.
Where from and where does it appear today? (most famous place, military connection).

Have at it.

Oscar Wilde - you got it.

Hm... for your first one I'll go with Sun Tzu from his treatise The Art Of War
I'll have to work on the second one.

Edit
I think I have it
Hassan-The Golden Road by james Elroy Flecker, it is inscribed on the SAS memorial at Credenhill

The second one, all I could think of is The pigrims in The Golden Journey To Samarkand and At the Gate of the Sun, in Bagdad.


Larynx, Spine Lungs, Liver, Jugular, Subclavian Artery, Kidney, Heart. Now which will be my strike point?
