Today's Quotefall Puzzle features a quote by Maj. General Roscoe Robinson. Click puzzle (or click here) for full size rendition, then use your browser's print command to print puzzle. More than forty years ago, a wet-behind-the-ears recruit listened to the words of a battle-hardened, wizened soldier, who was commanding general of the 82nd Airborne Division. While the quote may be paraphrased from long-distant but reasonably-reliant memory, the actions backing the words of this battle-hardened veteran of two wars still resonates in many of the paratroopers who served under his command. Note: Robinson retired as a 4-star (full) general. The 2-star rank indicated in his salutation is indicative of his rank when he gave the indoctrination speech at Ft. Bragg.
