KC130FE Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The United States Marine Corps is 234 years of romping, stomping, hell, death and destruction. The finest fighting machine the world has ever seen. We were born in a Bomb Crater, Our Mother was an M-16 and Our Father was the Devil. Each moment that I live is an additional threat upon your life. I an a rough looking, roving soldier of the sea. I am cocky, self-centered, overbearing, and do not know the meaning of fear, for I am fear itself. I am a green amphibious monster, made of blood and guts, who arose from the sea, feasting on anti-Americans throughout the globe. Whenever it may arise, and when my time comes, I will die a glorious death on the battlefield, giving my life for Mom, the Corps, and the American Flag. We stole the eagle from the Air Force, the anchor from the Navy, and the rope from the Army. On the seventh day, while God rested, we over-ran his perimeter and stole the globe, and we've been running the show ever since. We live like soldiers and talk like sailors and slap the Hell out of both of them. Warrior by day, lover by night, drunkard by choice, Marine by God!

hlg6016 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Time Machine! One of my better birthday celebrations came at the tale end of a Transpac. Luck of the draw had me on the cargo frame riding behind the tankers, missed the ball at Iwakuni due to going back to Wake to pick up the last of the fighter squadron's people. we got back to Futenma after midnite and some kind soul had left a cold case or two in the maintenance control fridge, No dress blues that night just sweaty dirty flight suits, me and the rest of the crew sitting with our feet in the benjo next to the washrack sharing some stories and suds with a good crew having our own celebration!
