'When trouble comes they come not in single spies but in battalion form' is from which of Shakespeare's writings?

"When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions" is from Hamlet. I think you're confounding this quotation with one from Jean Rhys's novel, Wide Sargasso Sea, which begins with the reflection, "They say when trouble comes, close ranks..." But it's painful to think Billy Shakespeare would have written the mangled version in the question!Famous quote by William Shakespeare, as it appears in Act IV, Scene V; Jean Rhys, "Wide Sargasso Sea."
This "mangled" form is also quoted verbatim in the movie Young Guns II by Jose Chavez Y Chavez. He attributes it to his friend and fellow gang member Doc Scurlock. Upon hearing it, Doc finally comes clean and tells Chavez he didn't write it, William Shakespeare did.

What was one of the Egyptian symbols used to show the word trouble?
There is no single hieroglyph that means "trouble." There were a number of Egyptian words that can be translated as "trouble," but they all required more than one glyph to write.The hieroglyphic spellings of words denoting small, weak or bad things often included a picture of a sparrow as a determinative (i.e., a glyph indicating a category of meaning, rather than representing a specific sound or word). This symbol does not seem to have occurred by itself to mean "trouble," however - or any other word, for that matter.To see the hieroglyphic spelling of an Egyptian word for "trouble," transliterated as qsnt, copy the following line, paste it into the input window at http://hieroglyphs.net/0301/cgi/pager.pl?p=04 and click "Submit."

Why does a brigade support battalion exist?
With the high mobility of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Army needed to make brigades as independent as possible, rather than moving entire divisions as a single unit. By expanding brigades with their own support and multi-branch combat battalions, they could be deployed as a unit without need for further support or attached units. Thus, what was called a Brigade is now called a BCT - Brigade Combat Team.
