Army Retires "Be All You Can Be" Jingle

http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/01/10/new.army/index.html

Alternatives:

Be all you'll ever be
Be less than you can be
Be what you're told to be
Be all we'll let you be
Be not asked and don't tell
Be what you can get away with being

The new slogan is "An Army of One".

Dear Representative,

If we have an Army of One,
why does it cost
hundreds of billions of dollars?

Yours,
