On behalf of all Marines everywhere- Thank you. On a personal note. If you really want to thank a Marine or other veteran, go to the local VA hospital and shake a few hands. Trust me, it's worth it to those guys there and they deserve it.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARINES! A guy I work with spent some time as a volunteer at the VA hospital here in town. You could tell that the vets appreciated him taking time out of his day to visit with them. If you should have a Soldiers & Sailors home in your town I'm sure they too welcome volunteers.~Gary
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.
That little part of the Kipling poem "Tommy" always comes to mind this time of year. My hope is that these kids that have given their utmost are never forgotten. Not only on Veterans and Memorial Day but everyday.
