I'll take care of my men first. Frozen troops can't fight. If we run out of ammunition, we'll go to the bayonet. - Chesty Puller

We've been looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things.

Let 'em get in close. Don’t waste ammo. Get your share! Remember, you don't hurt 'em if you don't hit 'em.

I have yet to encounter any officer here who has read an account of the Russo-Japanese War. The Japanese armies went up through Korea, crossed the Yalu River and turned westward to capture Port Arthur. The Japanese forces found out what cold weather would do to the troops under field conditions.
