Why run when you can drive CMPs? Makes no bloody sense to me...
OTOH... the basic credo of the infantry:
Why run when you can walk, why walk when you can sit down, why sit when you can lie down.
The only differential was written by George MacDonald Fraser when he said 'You've never seen any light infantry move faster than a Highland Regiment in the attack'.
Presumably because their rum ration was at the other end of it...
