how about my friend PFC Pinkston who was in iraq on convoy security, he was caught by an IED, a few miles out of our base gate. his vehicle flipped and was pinned down due to a harness he was wearing and the fact that he was manning the 50 cal on top of his vehicle. he lost his arm and the side of his body was crushed he held on for about two weeks before passing away. he had bn enthusiastic about being a marine and in less then a yr was in iraq being a real warrior.


he didnt have 100 kills under his name he never fired his wpn at the enemy. what he did was patrol and protect his convoy from enemy attacks and suspicious looking roads and streets. he had bn doing it for well over 4 months and had two months left for his tour to finish and go home to his family. during that time he had stopped his convoy at three separate occasion saving the lives of his unit from IED attacks.

he was one of those marines that you didnt have to order to do his job b/c he was already on it. many marines teased him b/c he had just turned 19 and had joined right out of high school and wasnt muscle bound like all the other stereo type jock marines. he use to follow me to the gym always seeking to improve himself as a marine and as a man always trying to escape the fact that he was just a teenager.

he died a man and as a warrior he saw what other ppl never will, not just war but other countries and ppl from all walks of life.

i think the problem here is that many of you romanticizes what it is to be a hero and you throw your video games and movie heroes and think its cool and funny but you no squat what is to be one. their are countless ppl that have real extraordinary feats from climbing a side of a mountain and taking the enemies position to an iraq Ssgt taking 8 shots and a grenade to protect his lcpl clearing the room and dragging his men to safety before passing away those ppl are heroes.

not some 2 thousand yr samurai who exist only in myths, or your game console.


"Victory is still measured by foot" - The Indian Army

"Let us be clear about three facts: First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm."Field Marshal Earl Wavell

* "I love the infantry because they are the underdogs. They are the mud-rain-frost-and-wind boys. They have no comforts, and they even learn to live without the necessities. And in the end they are the guys that wars can't be won without." Ernie Pyle

"I'm convinced that the infantry is the group in the army which gives more and gets less than anybody else."[7] Bill Mauldin, Up Front (1945)

"Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime. Ask the infantry and ask the dead."-Hemingway

"The infantry doesn't change. We're the only arm [of the military] where the weapon is the man himself."C.T. Shortis

"Ah, yes, mere infantry — poor beggars…"Plautus

"The army's infantry is its most essential component. Even today, no army can take and hold any ground without the use of infantry." George Nafziger

"The infantry is there so that when some die the generals know where to direct the artillery fire" (anonymous Japanese soldier, Iwo Jima)

'"Aerial bombardment can obliterate, but only infantry can occupy" - a Finnish Army observation of the Operation Allied Force in the 1990s

"We are the boys who will go to a particular place, at H-hour, occupy a designated terrain, stand on it, dig the enemy out of their holes, force them then and there to surrender or die. We're the bloody infantry, the doughboy, the duckfoot, the foot soldier who goes where the enemy is and takes them on in person. We've been doing it, with changes in weapons but very little change in our trade, at least since the time five thousand years ago when the foot sloggers of Sargon the Great forced the Sumerians to cry "Uncle!" - Robert A. Heinlein
