“…You're part of a brotherhood. From now on until the day you die, wherever you are, every Marine is your brother.” Drill Instructor Gunnery Sergeant Hartman Full Metal Jacket
OOH-RAH Air Corps!!! Oh, wait a minute...whoops. I thought we were talking about my beloved USAF.
On a more serious note gentlemen, I do wish your Marine Corps a happy birthday. Even though I'm from another service, I'm always proud of the Marines with their ferocious iron will and unswayable committment to service. Everyone from all walks of life, the other services especially, can learn a large lesson about motivation and loyalty from the Marines.
Happy Birthday USMC, all the best to our brothers and sisters in arms.
And to my Godson, Jacob J. Williams, 27 Charlie Company, who is headed to Camp Pendleton as I write. Thanks for all you guys and gals do, and have done.
Actual headline - GIs save guests from motel fire
LAKE FOREST, Calif. - Off-duty Marines are being hailed for saving lives after rousing sleepy guests as fire gripped a California motel.
Fire chiefs say six Marines, on leave from Camp Pendleton, raced door to door to warn guests and carried an elderly man to safety as flames and smoke engulfed the Americas Best Value Inn in Lake Forest.
Everyone escaped without injury and the Marines say they were just doing what they had been trained to do.
