Murphy's Laws of Combat:
You are not Superman
Suppressive fire won't
If it's stupid but it works it's not stupid
Don't look conspicuous, it draws fire
Try and look unimportant, the enemy might be low on ammo
Never draw fire, it makes everyone around you nervous
When in doubt, empty the magazine
Never share a foxholw with anyone braver than you
Always keep in mind that your weapon was made by the lowest bidder
If your atack is going well, it's an ambush
If you can't remember, the claymore is pointing towards you
All five second grenade fuses are three seconds
If you are foward of your position, the artillery will be short
The enemy diversion you're ignoring is the main attack
The easy way is always mined
The important things are always simple
The simple things are always hard
When you have secured an area, don't forget to tell the enemy
Incoming fire has the right of way
Anything that can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time
No combat-ready unit has ever passed inspection
No inspection-ready unit has ever passed combat
Teamwork is essential, it gives the enemy other people to shoot at
If the enemy is in range, so are you
Friendly fire isn't
Anything you can do can get you shot... including doing nothing
Make it too tough for the enemy to get in, and you can't get out
Tracers work both ways
The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire
Radios will fail as soon as you need something desperately
When both sides are convinced they are about to lose... they are both right
Professionals are predictable, but the world is full of amatuers
All-weather close support doesn't work in bad weather
The bursting radius of a grenade is always one foot greater than your jumping distance
The only terrain that is truly controlled is the terrain upon which you are standing
The law of the bayonet says the man with the bullet wins
REMF (rear echelon motherfuckers, or non-combat troops)is everywhere
The best tank killer is another tank. Therefore, tanks are always fighting each other, and have no time to help the infantry
Precision bombing is normally accurate within plus/minus one mile
Cluster bombs from B-52s and C-130s are very, very accurate. they always hit the ground
Perfect plans aren't
The easy way generally gets you killed
The side with the fanciest uniforms loses
Armored vehicles are bullet magnets, a moving foxhole that attracts attention
If you are short of everything except eemy, you are in combat
No plan survives the first few seconds of comabat
Ammo is cheap; your life isn't
It's easier to expend material in combat than to fill out the forms for Graves Registration
If you can't see the enemy, they still may be able to see you
Final protective fire doesn't
You can win without fighting, but it is a lot tougher to do and the enemy might not always cooperate
I like to play video games. I also like to play sports such as golf and baseball. Sometime in the future I hope to become a marine. I like cold weather, not when there is rain but definately when there is snow. I hike 1.5 miles every day from my house to my school.

I am interested in becoming a United States Marine. However I also wouldn't mind getting a job as a video game designer or a profesional golfer.
