He who loves the bristle of bayonets only sees in the glitter what beforehand he feels in his heart.

Here are a couple from Patton:

It is the cold glitter of the attacker's eye not the point of the questing bayonet that breaks the line.

Few men are killed by bayonets, but may are scared by them. Having the bayonet fixed makes our men want to close. Only the threat to close will defeat a determined enemy.


"The best form of taking care of troops is first-class training, for this saves unnecessary casualties." Erwin Rommel

Marines know how to use their bayonets, Army bayonets may as well be paperweights.

that was actually a quote but i forgot who said it.


No disrespect meant to the army, it was just a quote/joke, it was said by some general after returning from Nam i think, i will check on it later.


-Victory is mine
-Yes but no sprinkles. For every sprinkle I find, I shall kill you
-Oh. Mmm, yes, this is better than *sex*, it\'s like an orgy in my mouth; good news Flappy, I\'ve decided not to kill you
-Damn you, damn the broccoli, and damn the Wright Brothers.
-How ironic ? Rogers - it almost rhymes with... eliminate.

Interesting that it should've been made by a Marine general in Vietnam which saw no bayonet charges by anyone. The last bayonet charge by any branch of the US military was in Korea and it was an Army unit that did it.

Oh yeah, the argyll's gave the insurgents some head ahces in iraq with a bayonet charge once they ran out of ammo.
He he they done better with the bayonets than the guns, never give a scotsman a knife!
