You'll conform to the identity we give you
Eat where we tell you
Live where we tell you
From now on, you'll have no identifying marks of any kind
You will not stand out in any way
Your entire image is crafted to leave no lasting memory with anyone you encounter
You are a rumor, recognizable only as deja vu, and dismissed just as quickly
You don't exist
You were never even born
Anonymity is your name, silence is your native tongue
You are no longer part of the system
You are above the system, over it, beyond it
We're "them." We're "they." We are the Men in

in this war
things get confused out there
Power, ideals, the old morality, and practical military necessity
But out there with these natives, it must be a temptation to be God
Because there's a conflict in every human heart, between the rational and irration, between good and evil
And good does not always triumph
Sometimes, the dark side overcomes what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature

you want to serve and I can't talk you out of it, then we have to take you, because that's your constitutional right
It says that everybody, male or female, should have his born right to pay his service and assume full citizenship -- but the facts are that we are getting hard pushed to find things for all the volunteers to do that aren't just glorified KP
You can't all be real military men; we don't need that many and most of the volunteers aren't number-one soldier material anyhow
we've had to think up a whole list of dirty, nasty, dangerous jobs that will
at the very least make them remember for the rest of their lives that their citizenship is valuable to them because they've paid a high price for it
A term of service is
either real military service, rough and dangerous even in peacetime
or a most unreasonable facsimile thereof

He had severed it from the trunk, built a huge fire in the sitting room, placed her head upon it, then (I owe a debt here to Edgar Wallace, who edited the transcript of the Mahon trial), then the storm broke with a violent flash of lightning and an appalling crash of thunder. As the head of Emily Kaye lay upon the coals, the dead eyes opened, and Mahon fled out to the deserted shore. When he nerved himself to return, the fire had done its work. The head was never found
