Field Training Manual 2020

Verbiage for the last cadet to arrive at table

"Be seated" "Moment of silence" "Enjoy your meal" - this is when the 10 min begins

Brigader General Jeannie M. Leavitt, USAF

"Gender, race, religion, none of that matters. What matters is how you perform."

President Thomas Jefferson

"He who permits himself to tell a lie once finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells a lie without attending to it, and truths without the world believing it."

General Dwight D. Eisenhower, USA

"If I didn't have air supremacy, I wouldn't be here."

General Nathan Twining, USAF

"If our air forces are never used, they have achieved their finest goal."

General Ulysses S. Grant, USA

"In every battle, there comes a time when both sides consider themselves beaten; then he who continues the attack wins."

General Charles A. Gabriel, Chief of Staff, USAF

"Integrity is the fundamental premise for military service in a free society. Without integrity, the moral pillars of our military strength, public trust, and self-respect are lost."

Father Denis E. O'Brien, Sergeant, USMC

"It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protestor to burn the flag."

General Omar N. Bradley, USA

"Leadership is intangible; therefore no weapon ever designed can replace it."

Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force Kaleth Wright

"Leadership is willing to do what you ask others to do."

DFAC Verbiage

"Sir/Ma'am _____ Flight reports with a dining priority of _____, we arrived at _____, our accountability is _____ of _____." After mess checker gives instructions: "Will that be all, Sir/Ma'am?"

General Joseph L. Collins, USA

"The American people rightly look to their military leaders to be not only skilled in the technical aspects of the profession of arms, but to be men of integrity."

General Norman Schwarzkopf

"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war."

General Daniel S. "Chappie" James, USAF

"The power of excellence is overwhelming. It is always in demand, and nobody cares about its color."

General George C. Marshall, USA

"There is no limit to the good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit."

Major Lisa Jaster, USA

"There's no quitting, I can't have quit in me. There was never an option to stop and quit."

Italian Air Marshall Guilio Douhet

"Victory smiles upon those who anticipate the changes in the character of war, not upon those who wait to adapt themselves after the changes occur."

John Stuart Mill

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling, which thinks that nothing is worth war, is much worse. The person, who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

Alfred Thayer Mahan

"War, once declared, must be waged offensively, aggressively. The enemy must not be fended off; but smitten down. You may then spare him every exaction, relinquish every gain, but 'til then he must be struck incessantly and remorselessly."

Cadet Honor Code

"We will not lie, steal, or cheat, nor tolerate among us anyone who does."
