"Somewhere I hear the saying, “the only more dangerous place to be than inside a tank, is outside the tank”."

One of Bill Mauldin's "Up Front" cartoons from WWII has Willie and Joe talking to a tanker and telling him they feel safer as infantrymen because, "a moving foxhole attracts too much attention."
