“Retreat Hell! We’re just attacking in another direction.”
(Attributed to Major General Oliver P. Smith, USMC, Korea, December 1950.)
"Come on, you sons of bitches! Do you want to live forever?"
"Retreat? Hell, we just got here."
The author of the first saying, Sgt. Maj. Dan Daly, is one of only 19 Americans to have won the Medal of Honor twice. He claimed that what he actually said was, "For Christ's sake, men, come on! Do you want to live forever?"
