CEASAR'S APPRECIATION FOR TEAMWORK

“Before our eyes one incident took place which we thought most remarkable and which I ought to mention.  Standing in front of the town gate was a Gaul soldier [enemy of Rome] who took lumps of tallow and pitch [flammable material] as they were handed to him and threw them into the fire that was burning near one of our towers.  

He was struck in the right side by an arrow from a catapult and fell down dead.  Another man standing nearby stepped over the prostrate body and went on with the job.  He too was killed in the same way by a shot from a catapult; then his place was taken by a third man, who in turn was followed by a fourth; indeed, that position was never abandoned until the fire on the terrace was put out by our soldiers.”

—WAR COMMENTARIES OF CAESAR—

Even Ceasar could appreciate the teamwork and comittment shown by his enemy.
