Happy Birthday Marines!

Date November 10, 2007

One of my friends sent out a slide show with some Marine Corps History in it, and  several really good quotes. One of the quotes that made me think was this:

In the last analysis, what the Marine Corps becomes is what we make of it during our respective watches, and that watch of each Marine is not confined to the time he spends on active duty. It lasts as long as he is ‘proud to bear the title of United States Marine’ – General Louis H. Wilson. 26th Commandant of the Marine Corps.

To all of my brothers and sisters, both home and abroad, I hope you have a happy and safe day today.

Happy Birthday Devil Dogs!
