官兵

官 = 㠯 + 宀 : Mnemonic symbol: to symbolize the bureaucracy involved in every governmental system I'll use a folder.

官 = 㠯 + 宀 : Gitta Giraffe just graduated from anthill, and standing in front of it, still wearing her graduation cap, she's ready to assume her post as government official. She already has a folder under each arm and is wearing big safety glasses (be safe at work!).

兵 = 丘 + 八 : Brunhilde and the soldier visit a burial mound in front of the engine. It is round like a ball like the deceased inside. To commemorate the round fallen soldier they put up a big eight-ball.
