Default Happy Birthday and Semper Fi
Happy Birthday Devil Dogs......To all my Brothers in Arms.......Started in Tun Tavern and honed in Battles such as Barbary Coast, Battle of New Orleans, Chapultepec Palace, ippines in the Spanish/American War, Belleau Wood, Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, Pusan, Chosin Reservoir, Danang, Hue City, Khe Sanh, Kandahar and Fallujah. And these are just a few of the battles we fought.There are many others that never hit the history books......I am proud that our Corps still puts out the finest military in the word.....

Again Happy Birthday and Semper Fi

That's because he was sworn in to the Continental Navy on 13 Oct 1775.

I stand for the flag, I kneel for the fallen!

The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.
