[Pete]

From there it was all downhill, a sordid tale of rapine, pillage and plunder.

When I attended Fort Benning OCS in 1977 one of the instructors who spoke to us in Infantry Hall had a humorous Vu-Graph slide about the ideal TO&E for an Infantry division. He pointed out the little box on the organizational chart showing the authorized personnel and equipment for the Rape, Pillage and Plunder Section -- one Major, one Master Sergeant, and one Truck, Utility, Utility, One-Quarter Ton, 4x4, M151A1, with Equipment.
