National Guard Troops

Famous quotes containing the words national, guard and/or troops:

“Maybe it’s understandable what a history of failures America’s foreign policy has been. We are, after all, a country full of people who came to America to get away from foreigners. Any prolonged examination of the U.S. government reveals foreign policy to be America’s miniature schnauzer—a noisy but small and useless part of the national household.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)

“Those that I fight I do not hate,
Those that I guard I do not love;”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.”
—Douglas MacArthur (1880–1964)
