The Makedonian phalanx -- why such depth?
Quote:there is no way that I - were I the dimoiretes - would be accepting any less pay than my contemporaries in the front fighting rank. Why is the bloke alonside of me - a "marching leader" - accorded a higher staus and, I assume, pay?

Sure you would, because you have hopes of taking over his spot some day and want the higher pay when you get there!

A Spartan, being asked a question, answered "No." And when the questioner said, "You lie," the Spartan said, "You see, then, that it is stupid of you to ask questions to which you already know the answer!"
