On this Veterans Day, John Enright reminds me of one of my favorite lines from George Patton: “Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. You won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.”

I salute all of those American soldiers who have ever made “the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.”
