In War There Is No Substitute For

If I Had One More Division Like This First Marine Division I Could Win This War.

I Address You With Neither Rancor Nor Bitterness In The Fading Twilight Of Life, With But One Purpose In Mind: To Serve My Country. The Issues Are Global And So Interlocked That To Consider The Problems Of One Sector, Oblivious To Those Of Another, Is But To Court Disaster For The Whole. While Asia Is Commonly Referred To As The Gateway To Europe, It Is No Less True That Europe Is The Gateway To Asia, And The Broad Influence Of The One Cannot Fail To Have Its Impact Upon The Other.

From The Far East I Send You One Single Thought, One Sole Idea - Written In Red On Every Beachhead From Australia To Tokyo - "there Is No Substitute For Victory!"

No Plan Ever Survives Its First Encounter With The Enemy.

I Address You With Neither Rancor Nor Bitterness In The Fading Twilight Of Life, With But One Purpose In Mind: To Serve My Country.
