The Surgeon

Whenever you are ignorant of a soldier's complaint, you should first take a little blood from him, and then give him an emetic and a catharitic - to which you may add a blister. This will serve, at least, to diminish the number of your patients.

Francis Grose: Advise to the Officers of the British Army, 1782.

Lieutenant-General Francis Grose (c. 1758– 8 May 1814)

was a soldier and Lieutenant Governor of New South Wales.

The American's Creed

by William Tyler Page

I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

–Written 1917, accepted by the United States House of Representatives on April 3, 1918.
