4. Would you mind a few words of advice?
Edited on Thu Feb-22-07 08:13 PM by Redstone
1) Keep your head down.

2) He who fights and runs away, lives to fight another day. (In other words, you can't win in any sense of the word if you get dead trying to win EVERY time.)

3) It is NOT your job to die for your country. I'd put the rest of Patton's saying here as well, but it doesn't work for this situation.

4) Remember, you're going to be in someone else's country, and they did NOT invite you there. Therefore, be mindful of their sensibilities, and also be very careful all the time.

5) Keep your head down.

6) Come home alive and with all the parts you went there with. Do we have a deal on this?
