R. M. Williams Quotes
In times of drought water brings us a major problem despite its essentiality, and this especially so where dams are the chief watering points, because as the waters recede the cattle have to tread over ground that is ever wetter and boggier and more difficult to cross. In their weakened condition cattle go down in this deep mud. Every day it is necessary to ride out and check these boggy dams and try to pull the cattle out.

Military is a great place for a jock. That's the first thing they test you, they test you physically. If you can run, if you can do the pushups, it's not as hard a transition.
