Am I ready? No one is ever “ready” for war... Individuals and nations may materially prepare for its coming; however the first casualty of war is not “the truth,” but rather it is all those plans made for every eventuality, except that which none thought possible.
I will not know whether I am ready until the first bullet whistles past my head... then I shall truly know who I am and what stuff I am made of.

You are counting on the shooter missing.
