When my brother Jared was in boot camp, his sergeant told him he was born to be a Marine. When my brother asked why, the sergeant replied "because your first name is Jar Head"
as a former Marine I still celebrate this day. I am amazed that folks are still enlisting for the combat arms fields and wish all those currently serving (in whatever role) the best for a safe return from duty. Thank you for keeping us safe. Happy Birthday USMC. Semper Fi! Kevin
Coming from a family of marines (uncle is a retired captain, father was in korea, cousin is in Afghanistan) I have the utmost respect for the military, thank god they are who they are, we can never thank them enough,
Happy Birthday to all of the Marines out there. Thank you all for your service, past or present. The Corps is what it is today because of the examples set by our predecessors. In this part of the world it's already Veteran's Day, so thank you to all the veterans, no matter what service, for everything you do. Your sacrifices allow us to raise our children in freedom. And I don't care what the revisionists say; the Corps WAS founded in a tavern!! Semper Fidelis, Ryan
