infantryman

It's rare for journalists these days to speak to infantrymen, as it's become too risky to go to these trenches.

About the same time, a Missouri infantryman and musician in the home’s band fell back into the sodden embrace of booze after years of sobriety, went back to his barracks and swallowed hydrochloric acid.

I’m struck by the parallel between the life of a closeted trans Civil War infantryman and the modern American trans teen.

He served two tours in Iraq between 2003 and 2006, as an enlisted Marine infantryman and scout sniper, and then left the service to become a lawyer.

He fled agricultural service in Kilmarnock as a teenager to get to Glasgow to enlist as an infantryman before ending up "right in the forefront" of the battle for Monte Cassino.
