In 2018;

May your mags be fully loaded and your sights focused on your targets.

May your muzzle traverse in a safe direction.

May you hit a bulls eye in all you aim for.

May your trigger finger be calm in all situations.

And may the Forest be with you!​

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Same to you sir; to that, I can only add the Standing Orders I'll try to follow....

Don't forget nothing.

Have your musket clean as a whistle, hatchet scoured, sixty rounds powder and ball, and be ready to march at a minute's warning.

When you're on the march, act the way you would if you was sneaking up on a deer. See the enemy first.

Tell the truth about what you see and do. There is an army depending on us for correct information. You can lie all you please when you tell other folks about the Rangers, but don't never lie to a Ranger or officer.

Don't never take a chance you don't have to.

When we're on the march we march single file, far enough apart so one shot can't go through two men.

If we strike swamps, or soft ground, we spread out abreast, so it's hard to track us.

When we march, we keep moving till dark, so as to give the enemy the least possible chance at us.

When we camp, half the party stays awake while the other half sleeps.

If we take prisoners, we keep 'em separate til we have had time to examine them, so they can't cook up a story between 'em.

Don't ever march home the same way. Take a different route so you won't be ambushed.

No matter whether we travel in big parties or little ones, each party has to keep a scout 20 yards ahead, twenty yards on each flank and twenty yards in the rear, so the main body can't be surprised and wiped out.

Every night you'll be told where to meet if surrounded by a superior force.

Don't sit down to eat without posting sentries.

Don't sleep beyond dawn. Dawn's when the enemy attacks.

Don't cross a river by a regular ford.

If somebody's trailing you, make a circle, come back onto your own tracks, and ambush the folks that aim to ambush you.

Don't stand up when the enemy's coming against you. Kneel down. Hide behind a tree.

Let the enemy come till he's almost close enough to touch. Then let him have it and jump out and finish him up with your hatchet.

;)
 
Wish that you keep the middle finger to yourself and got no chance to use it.
Wish that your pistol will stay in your holster the whole time and got no chance to use it except at the range.
Wish that gun is only for fun.
Wish that no sickness lingering around you and your love ones.
Wish that you enjoy 2018 to the fullest.
