Happy Birthday United States Marine Corps
Edited on Mon Nov-10-08 11:25 AM by BOSSHOG
10 November 1775, 233 years ago today, a bunch of guys got together in a bar in Philadelphia and created one bad ass fighting organization. Semper FI teammates. A hearty salute to all from an Old Swabby who had the privilege of serving with many "Jarheads."

11. Semper Fi Marine
I loved you guys. If I had to do it all over again, I would have joined the Corps instead of the Navy.
