George Washington: "The general is sorry to be informed that the foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing, a vice heretofore little known in an American Army, is growing into fashion. He hopes that the Officers by example as well as influence will endeavor to check it. That both they and the men will know that we can not hope to have the blessings of heaven on our arms if we continue to insult it with our impiety and folly"
