Kinda like the old saying "one riot, one ranger." One enemy company, one special forces team.

It also reminds me of the joke about Israeli soldiers that circulated after one of the (several) wars where Israel was outnumbered but still kicked everyone's butt:

During the [pick any Arab-Israeli war], an Arab tank battallion paused to study their maps and break for lunch, when all of a sudden an Israeli soldier popped up from behind a nearby sand dune and called out, "you guys had better to back home, or you're gonna be in trouble!"

The Arab commander sneered and sent for Abdul, one of his biggest, brawniest soldiers. "Abdul," he commanded, "go kill that pest, but make it slow and painful." Abdul unslung his rifle and drew his knife, and went running after the Israeli.

They both disappeared behind the sand dune, and there were sounds of a scuffle. Then the Israeli, his hair barely mussed, climbed out from behind the sand dune again and said, "I mean it, you guys should just quit while you can."

The Arab commander snarled and ordered ten of his men to go kill the Israeli. They disappeared behind the sand dune and gunfire and screams rang out, then silence. The Arab commander smiled until the Israeli soldier, his shirt slightly torn, climbed back onto the sand dune and called out, "hey, you guys are starting to make me mad!"

Outraged, the Arab commander ordered his entire battallion to attack. Hundreds of Arabs surge forward, with armored cars and tanks clanking right behind them.

Suddenly Abdul, the first Arab soldier to engage the Israeli, crawled painfully up to the top of the sand dune and screamed, "turn back!! It's a trap!! There are *TWO* Israeli soldiers back here!"
