Default Who wrote these?!

Ok, a friend of mine has a bookself full of Military manuals so I was reading some to kill some time here is some fun stuff I found.

"It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed."

"Don't draw fire; it irritates the people around you."

"If you see a bomb technician running, try to keep up with him."

"If the enemy is in range, so are you."

Wow, what were they on when they wrote these.
Now lets end it with
"Incoming fire has the right of way" always smart. I'll see what else I can find

I remember seeing some of those lines printed on a card or poster some years back. Another poster was the "Murphy's Law of Combat", or something like that.

Teamwork is essential; it gives the enemy other people to shoot at.
