The patriot volunteer, fighting for country and his rights, makes the most reliable soldier on earth.
I am more anxious than I can express that my men should be not only good soldiers of their country, but also good soldiers of the cross.
War means fighting. The business of the soldier is to fight. Armies are not called out to dig trenches, to throw up breastworks, to live in camps, but to find the enemy and strike him; to invade his country, and do him all possible damage in the shortest possible time. This will involve great destruction of life and property while it lasts; but such a war will of necessity be of brief continuance, and so would be an economy of life and property in the end.
We must make this campaign an exceedingly active one. Only thus can a weaker country cope with a stronger; it must make up in activity what it lacks in strength.
All I am and all I have is at the service of my country.
