That was beautiful Jason, Happy Birthday Marines.

Last night, my daughter came to me and said:

"Hey dad, there's a Veterans celebration being held at the High School, I want to go and honor those who fight for us"

We went, and we had to park across the street since there were SO many people in attendance. One part of the ceremony, the High School Chorus sang all the Military Songs, and when your song was played, you were to stand up if you were a Vet or a family member of a Vet. When the Air Force Song was played, Brittany grabbed my arm, and said

"Stand up daddy, this is Grandpa's song"

And we did, we stood up proud! Brittany is 12 years old and I couldn't have been prouder.

Today is the Marines Birthday, so Happy Birthday to the Marine Corps. Tomorrow is Veterans day, so THANK YOU ! Veterans!

This is how we welcome our Marines home in Brewster, NY! We were ALL there!

"A Marine is a Marine. I set that policy two weeks ago - there's no such thing as a former Marine. You're a Marine, just in a different uniform and you're in a different phase of your life. But you'll always be a Marine because you went to Parris Island, San Diego or the hills of Quantico. There's no such thing as a former Marine."

General James F. Amos, 35th Commandant of the Marine Corps

OOHRAH!!!!!!!! Happy Birthday to all my Brothers and Sisters.

Absolutely!

Marines make alot of fun at the Navy's expense, but when it gets really deep the first question we ask is "Are we in gun range?" so the Sailors with the BIG guns can bail our butts out! When a Marine goes down the first words out of our mouth....C O R P S M A N!!

Thanks back at you Stevasaurus!

P.S. The pants still look silly! :dunno:
