Jk okudu diye okumaya başlayan bir Army
Özgüvenle, kendiniz olmak, kendiniz gibi yaşamak yanlış değil.

“None of this can actually be happening. If it makes you more comfortable, you could simply think of it as metaphor. Religions are, by definition, metaphors, after all: God is a dream a hope, a woman, an ironist, a father, a city, a house of many rooms, a watchmaker who left his prize chronometer in the desert, someone who loves you — even, perhaps, against all evidence, a celestial being whose only interest is to make sure your football team, army, business, or marriage thrives, prospers, and triumphs over all opposition.
Religions are places to stand and look and act, vantage points from which to view the world.”
All was prepared – the fire, the sword, the men
To wield them in their terrible array.
The army like a lion from his den
Marched forth with nerve and sinews bent to slay,
A human Hydra, issuing from its fen
To breathe destruction on its winding way,
Whose heads were heroes, which cut off in vain,
Immediately in others grew again.
“Religions are, by definition, metaphors, after all: God is a dream, a hope, a woman, an ironist, a father, a city, a house of many rooms, a watchmaker who left his prize chronometer in the desert, someone who loves you - even, perhaps, against all evidence, a celestial being whose only interest is to make sure your football team, army, business, or marriage thrives, prospers, and triumphs over all opposition.”
Alessandro ‘Alpha’ Villanova
The fact that he was relaxed, that there was no security, that he and Tristan hadn't been stripped of weapons before meeting him told Dante exactly how lethal the man before him was. Unlike his father who had relied on his army of security to keep him safe, this man was a warrior king, who had amassed his army by fighting and winning.
A CARCASS
(…)
The flies buzzed and droned on these bowels of filth
Where an army of maggots arose,
Which flowed with a liquid and thickening stream
On the animate rags of her clothes.
And it rose and it fell, and pulsed like a wave,
Rushing and bubbling with health.
One could say that this carcass, blown with vague breath,
Lived in increasing itself.
And this whole teeming world made a musical sound
Like babbling brooks and the breeze,
Or the grain that a man with a winnowing-fan
Turns with a rhythmical ease. (…)

“Religions are, by definition, metaphors, after all: God is a dream, a hope, a woman, an ironist, a father, a city, a house of many rooms, a watchmaker who left his prize chronometer in the desert, someone who loves you—even, perhaps, against all evidence, a celestial being whose only interest is to make sure your football team, army, business, or marriage thrives, prospers, and triumphs over all opposition. Religions are places to stand and look and act, vantage points from which to view the world. So none of this is happening. Such things could not occur. Never a word of it is literally true.”
War *show of power
He instantly saw that it would be impossible for him to escape from the regiment. It enclosed him. And there were iron laws of custom and law on four sides. He was in a moving box.
As he realized this fact, he thought that he had never wished to come to the war. He had not joined the army by his own choice. He had been dragged by a merciless government. And now they were taking him out to be killed.
War novel
"You be careful, Henry, and take good care of yourself. Don’t think you can beat the whole rebel army at the start, because you can’t. You’re just one little fellow among a lot of others, and you have to keep quiet and do what they tell you. I know how you are, Henry."
“1960 öncesi dönemin bir diğer önemli uygulaması ise Kara Harp Okulu'na ilk kadın öğrencilerin alınmasıdır. İlk kadın askeri öğrenci İnci Arsan 1955 yılı Ağustos ayı itibarıyla Kara Harp Okulu'na kabul edilmiştir. Bu noktada da Amerikan WAC (Women Army Corps) ve WASP (Women Airforce Service Pilots) uygulamalarından etkilenilmesi kuvvetle muhtemeldir. Ancak önemle vurgulamak gerekir ki Türkiye henüz 1955 yılında muvazzaf subay olarak yetiştirilmek üzere harp okullarına öğrenci almışken, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nde muvazzaf subay yetiştirilmek üzere West Point Harp Okulu'na kadın subay kabul edilmesi ancak 1976 yılında mümkün olacaktır.”

Michael irkildi, çünkü Army mektupta ona solucan demişti:) . Onunla konuştuğu güne lanet ettiğini, bunu sırf ona acıdığı için yaptığını söylemişti.
