Philosophy

Even while they're safe on the Forward Operating Base (FOB), Soldiers still carry their rifles with them everywhere they go, along with a magazine of ammunition. Most Soldiers strap this magazine to their rifle in a little pouch attached to the weapon's buttstock.

After wearing the same uniforms day in and day out, there's very few ways a Soldier can show any individuality. One Soldier, however, came up with a creative way of doing so by adorning his magazine pouch with the following insightful quotation from the great philosopher, Homer...

...Simpson.

"To alcohol! The cause of--and solution to--all of life's problems"
