Somebody misread their job description.

In a story of the KWTX web site about 2nd BCT, First Cavalry Division arriving in Kuwait:

"The brigade commander concluded his remarks to his troops reminding them of his “Black Jack Charge” – the mantra the brigade will live by over the coming year: being positive, polite, professional, prepared to help and, finally, being prepared to kill."

Come home safe, [profile] electorprince, despite your bosses being assholes.

Yeah, I suppose I should be glad "to kill" is one of the priorities at all. But WTF are we here for? Petting puppies? Picking flowers? Defense means HURTING PEOPLE BACK.
