"Enlisted men are stupid, but extremely cunning and sly, and bear
considerable watching."

Army Officer's Guide


Of course we know that is a joke and there is no such statement in the Officers
Guide. Not in my copy anyway.


purportedly, it's from the 19th century.....and i find it humorous.

no offense is meant to, or should be taken by, most, but i have had the
distinct pleasure* of serving under a few who's actions made it clear
that they felt that way.......

btw, i like your site, and the stories. thanks for putting it up.
