1. If the enemy is in range, so are you.

2. Incoming fire has the right of way.

3. Don't look conspicuous: It draws fire.

4. The easy way is always mined.

5. Try to look unimportant, they may be low on ammo.

6. Professionals are predictable, its the amateurs that are dangerous.

7. The enemy invariably attacks on one of two occasions: When you are are ready for them and when you are not ready for them.

8. Team work is essential: it gives the enemy someone else to shoot at.

9. If you can't remember, the claymore is pointed at you.

10. If your attack is going well, you have walked into an ambush.

11. Don't draw fire, it irritates the people around you.

12. The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.

13. When the pin is pulled: Mr. Grenade is not your friend.

14. If it's stupid but works, it isn't stupid.

15. When in doubt empty the magazine.

16. Never share a foxhole with anyone braver than you.

17. Next time your equipment malfunctions, remember it was made by the lowest bidder.
