7 posts in this topic

As a Marine during the Vietnam era I still celebrate Nov 10, not like I use to many years ago in my dress blues.  The link below will give you a story from a military family.

Happy Birthday USMC.  7 more years to till the big 250th birthday!  I hope the Good Lord let's me stick around for it.

Semper Fi, brother.

We held our Rememberance/Veterans’ Day ceremonies this afternoon. Lots of Canadian military (many retired members) in the park.  There are also a few retired USMC; I wished them a Happy Birthday.

Semper Fi from one to others.  I always celebrate Veterans Day!!!.  One of my sons is in the Navy and we make it a point to especially call each other on that day.  It is also a time for me to reflect on my not so fortunate buddies, which I do often anyway.  God Bless!

PS: watch out for those Field 10's
