I hear they're going to rename Fallujah and call it Mangled Baby Ducks. Because with a name like Mangled Baby Ducks, you know it's got to be good.

Duck L'Iraq. Even the ducks laughed at the concept of the brutal Afghan winters as they headed north. "Ramadan? Ramadan means dinner, dinner means death! Death means carnage! Ramadan means carnage!" shrieked Ferdinand the duck. "Hey guys, take a gander at this, um, gander." Tim: "There they are!" King Arthur: "Where?" Tim: "There!" King Arthur: "What? Behind the ducks?" Tim: "It is the ducks!" King Arthur: "You silly sod!" Tim: "What?" King Arthur: "You got us all worked up!" Tim: "Well, those are no ordinary ducks." King Arthur: "Oh." Tim: "Those are the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered fowl you ever set eyes on!" Sir Robin: "You tit! I soiled my armor I was so scared!" Tim: "Look, those ducks got a vicious streak a mile wide! They're killers!" Sir Galahad: "Get stuffed!" Tim: "He'll do you up a treat, mate." Sir Galahad: "Oh, yeah? " Sir Robin: "You mangy Scots git!" Tim: "I'm warning you!" Sir Robin: "What's he do? Nibble your bum?" Tim: "They've got huge, sharp... er... They can waddle about. Look at the bones!" King Arthur: "Go on, Bors. Chop their heads off!" Sir Bors: "Right! Silly little bleeder. One sixteen-duck stew comin' right up!"

Hey kids, you wanna play "Duck, Duck, Tank?"

The ducks all quacked in unison, "It's rabbit season!"

You can lead a tank to a wadi, but you can't make it sink.

The complaints amongst the deployed National Guardsmen rose substantially after they learned that duck-herding had been added to their list of responsibilities.

Dateline 3/21/53, "Alarm-Geese" by EB White in The New Yorker Magazine: "The most stimulating piece of news we've heard since Malenkov came to power is that the British are using geese in Malaysia to fight Communist guerrillas. THe geese are employed as watchdogs, to sound a warning at the approach of the foe." Caption: The tragic results of the failure to recruit enough translators for the Coalition of the Willing to maintain communications with their "quack" troops.

*But, sir... they're not heavy enough to trip the land mines!

*Hey, I've got an idea for dinner... Pressed Duck. Gun it, man...

Ducks in the desert? Aren't Ducks supposed to, like, be around WATER?

* Good thing they're moving off.... I don't think the armor will hold up under another of their attacks.

Tired of Pentagon leadership, the cavalry decided the ducklings had the right idea and followed mom.
