Famous quotes containing the words troops and/or posts:

    Nearly all the bands are mustered out of service; ours therefore is a novelty. We marched a few miles yesterday on a road where troops have not before marched. It was funny to see the children. I saw our boys running after the music in many a group of clean, bright-looking, excited little fellows.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Get posts and letters, and make friends with speed;
    Never so few, and never yet more need.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
