Army of One is done.
The new slogan is "Army Strong," coming soon to a recruiting center near you.

Well, that's a step in the right direction, still falls way short IMO, but good riddance to "Army of One" silliness. The soldiers I know thought it was wussy; reminded them of some spoiled, undisciplined scumbag punk unwilling to conform to the team concept.

They should've turned this project over to the soldiers themselves, have a contest on Best Motto, give the winner some sort of valuable prize and I think they would've ended up with something far more inspiring. Bureaucrats never trust those under them to develop such things, that's why they're usually off the mark.

The Marine's "The Few, the Proud" will never be topped and if it's ever changed, a firing squad would be in order for the idiot that does it.
