In the spirit of the ongoing conflicts around the world i give you military minded logic
Genuine warnings written on military equipment and publications:
"Aim towards the Enemy." -Instruction printed on US Rocket Launcher
"When the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not our friend." -U.S. Army
"Cluster bombing from B-52s is very, very accurate. The bombs are
guaranteed
to always hit the ground." U.S.A.F.Ammo Troop
"If the enemy is in range, so are you." -Infantry Journal
"A slipping gear could let your M203 grenade launcher fire when you
least
expect it. That would make you quite unpopular in what's left of your
unit."
-Army's magazine of preventive maintenance.
"It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just
bombed." -U.S. Air Force Manual.
"Try to look unimportant; they may be low on ammo." -Infantry Journal
"Tracers work both ways." -U.S. Army Ordnance
"Five-second fuses only last three seconds." -Infantry Journal
"Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid." --Col. David
Hackworth
"If your attack is going too well, you're probably walking into an
ambush."
-Infantry Journal.
"No combat-ready unit has ever passed inspection." -Joe Gay
"Any ship can be a minesweeper ... once."-Anon
"Never tell the Platoon Sergeant you have nothing to do." Unknown Army
Recruit
"Don't draw fire; it irritates the people around you." -Unknown
And lastly
"If you see a bomb technician running, try to keep up with him."
--U.S.A.
Have a good holiday,

If you know a friend you can fully trust,go often to his house.
Grass & brambles quickly grow upon untrodden track.
