What's a WestPac cruise without Marines? Once you broke them from trying to lead, the Saturday night dances were wonderful! ....Happy Birthday Marines!
My birthday was yesterday but I have a long way to go before I make 249. I raise my cup{of coffee} to the USMC and may they still be strong after another 249 years.
Like the Army and the Navy, the Marines were established in 1775, the year before the Declaration of Independence, and well before the ratification of the U.S. Constitution.
Happy Birthday Marines!
Have known a number of them, the one who stands out is Marine Raider Gordon Warner.
I've had a few Marines work for me.
Once I was the Endorsing Officer on a Marine's Yearly Evaluation.
I instructed the Rating Officer to write me an Endorsement that would make his Momma Proud!
