    Your last words as you led the charge up the beach were, “Okay, men, let’s show ‘em whose beach this is!”

    They do consume the thing that feeds their fury.
    Though little fire grows great with little wind,
    Yet extreme gusts will blow out fire and all.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
