    Happy B-Day to all and God’s speed to the Marines in the war zones!! Vietnam vet 70-71

  • PLR, LTC USMC, Ret. 1968-1990

    Twenty Two years of service has gifted me with extreme honor, compassion and undivided loyality to the U.S.M.C.  Never will I sway from the devotion to those who have served, are serving or will serve.  We will in one way or another chew the same dirt, spill the same blood and defend the same brothers like no other . All though “ALL”  members of the U.S. Military deserve unwaivering respect, the inner respect shown between fellow Marines cannot be equaled.  To my fellow Marines, Stand Tall for all America to see. 

  • Allen

    Happy Birthday Marines, The title Marine will always be with me.  Thank you to all my brothers and sisters that are serving in our armed forces. 

  • tim

    my greatest treasure is the right to say I am a (former ) marine

  • Kathrynwitte

    Thank you to those that haven’t forgotten the women.  They are your sisters in arms. They carry exactly the same loads you did,  often at the cost of their health. Their burden, percentagewise, is greater, and they, too, have EARNED the title of United States Marine!  

    My heart and gratitude to you all. 
    Semper Fidelis, Semper Fortis!  Always Faithful, Always Strong!
