Many a Marine has annoyed or otherwise pissed me off from time to time and yet I get a lump in my throat, goose bumps and a little misty-eyed when I walk through that nice museum y’all have up at Quantico. I’ll raise a beer for my Marines tonight.
We’ve been side-by-side when times were tough. We will be side-by-side as our future unfolds come what may. Then as now we will always be Faithful to our Nation, regardless of the price.
Semper Fi and Happy Birthday.

Happy 234th to all Marines who served, those Marines currently serving, and those who gave their all from Tun Tavern to the battlefields of douchebagistan!
Semper Fi! RIP Sheldon Stites, US Marine 41-43

Ole’ Tater Salad would like to use a little of REVO”S space to say Semper Fi to all the brothers who served with him in Vietnam, 1967-68. Also to give thanks to all the corpsmen who saved my life in combat and on the USS Sanctuary.

I need to correct my grandpa’s dates of service. I accidentally put 41-43. Should say 41-45. He was still in when the bombs were dropped… ending it. He joined up right after Pearl Harbor (possibly early 42) and served til the end of the war.
He never talked about combat. He didn’t have a problem telling me about whores in the Phillipines, or whores in Portland, but never a word about fighting. Never talked to anyone about it… not even my Grandma, as far as I know.

I bet he talked about it with fellow Marines. The reason, I think, so many combat veterans don’t talk about their experience is that they have a feeling that they will be incapable of communicating the sensations, the sounds, the pain, the fear, the boredom, the smells, the love, the sights and the suffering. It cannot be adequately explained. There is no way to make others understand what it was to be there. When he met a fellow Marine, however, he understood and they talked. You can count on it.
