Yup, today was the end of the “Command of the Grill Week”, I hope you enjoyed reading the posts at least about half as much as I enjoyed cooking and eating all of that steak. Maybe now I should go get my cholesterol checked.

Of course, I chose today as the end date because it’s the 233rd birthday of the United States Marine Corps.

If you know a Marine, active duty or not, wish them happy birthday.

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!

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!
