Recruit Division Commander

Famous quotes containing the words recruit, division and/or commander:

“Are we aware of our obligations to a mob?

You may call the people a mob; but do not forget that a mob too often speaks the sentiments of the people.”

It will the woefullest division prove
That ever fell upon this cursed earth.”
