1. You are not a superman

2. If it's stupid, but works, it's not stupid.

3. Don't look conspicuous, it draws fire.

4. When in doubt, empty your magazine.

5. Never forget that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder.

6. Never share a foxhole with someone braver than you are.

7. If your attack is going really well, it's an ambush.

8. No plan survives the first contact intact.

9. All five second grenade fuses will burn down in three seconds.

10. Try to look unimportant because the bad guys may be low on ammo.

11. If you are forward of your position, the artillery will fall short.

22. Beer math is: two beers times 37 men = 49 cases.
