Troop Command

Famous quotes containing the words troop and/or command:

“Old soldiers, Miss Dandridge. Someday you’ll learn how they hate to give up. Captain of a troop one day, every man’s face turned toward ya. Lieutenants jump when I growl. Now tomorrow, I’ll be glad if the blacksmith asks me to shoe a horse.”
—Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)

“I, who should command a regiment,
Do amble amiably here, O God,
One of the neat ones in your awkward squad.”
