Please, GEN Schwarzkopf’s first name was Norman. He was far from “Normal” and extrordinary human being and outstanding leader of character and integrity.

I apologize. It looks like I made a typo when writing the post. General Schwarzkopf’s name should be corrected now. Thanks for letting us know.

Hi John,
According to Wikipedia, the Army slogan between the 50’s and early 70’s was “Look Smart, Be Smart, Go Army!”

Hopefully that’s the one you were looking for. If not, you might want to look at the National Archives online or some history books on the Korean War or Vietnam War. Best of luck!

The best slogan is – Safety starts with “S”, begins with “You”
They help in reminding the preventive measures in case you forget.
Safety posters are best illustrative measures to be taken.
