That was a paraphrase of George Patton from the book "Patton" written in 1964. I'll get the exact quote whenever I get home tonight. Just got back from a ceremony, the guest speaker was Mr. Durant from Blackhawk Down, he was the pilot captured & held 11 days by the bad guys, gave a very good first hand account of the two guys who were awarded the CMH. Big heros. Smoking guns in the sun. Bad air day.
