I Yield To No Man

Duty Is Ours; Consequences Are God's.

Shoot The Brave Officers, And The Cowards Will Run Away And Take The Men With Them.

If Officers Desire To Have Control Over Their Commands, They Must Remain Habitually With Them, Industriously Attend To Their Instruction And Comfort, And In Battle Lead Them Well.

Then, Sir, We Will Give Them The Bayonet!

I Yield To No Man In Sympathy For The Gallant Men Under My Command; But I Am Obliged To Sweat Them Tonight, So That I May Save Their Blood Tomorrow.
