    What kind of interpretation should we be going for? I did mention that the better reading I can find is the use of "army" as being an adjective.

    But when confronted with words like this:

    ...really? What's "Army Strong" supposed to mean.

    No, forget that question, what the hell is "Army Strong represents an evolution that is moving with the times" supposed to mean?
    It's supposed to mean that the only type of recruits they can get these days are grunts who don't do too much thinking

    I have to agree that "Be all you can be," is probably one of the better slogans. The latest couple are well...

        They sign up because they are poor people with no future. They want to sign up to say they are badasses, travel the world, **** cheap whores, etc.
        That's why they SAY the sign up.

        Besides, what kind of slogan is:

        "Losers: Enlist, get drunk, get laid & kill people?"

          And I thought "an army of one" was lame. They need to go back to "be all that you can be."

            Say, so what exactly is the difference between the army and the marines, now?

              Marine officers come from Annapolis, Army officers from West Point.

                I don't remember anyone *****ing about "Built Ford Tough," "Blade Close, Electric Smooth," etc etc etc. Slogans were never meant to be grammatical; they're meant to be catchy.
                Unbelievable!

                  Though I do remember people making fun of cars that handled "Like a Rock."

                    Infinitely better than "Army of One."
                    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                      The marines are always on campus recruting here. they've got a booth right on the biggest thoroughfare with a pullup bar. being the smartass that i am, i asked them how many pullups they must do before they can dodge bullets. then i told them that i was already served in the swiss army and that a marine stood no chance against the swiss soldier.

                            can I point out the obvious problem here?

                            Who in the hell joins a military service based on a slogan?

                            Or for that matter, who really cares about slogans? Do people eat McDonald's because of their slogan "I'm lovin' it" ?

                              You remember it.
                              Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
