U.S. Marine Corps Birthday!!!

As a former U.S. Marine, I want to pay tribute and honor all former Marines (alive or deceased) today! The Marine Corps was established on Nov 10, 1775! Today is our birthday! Today, we are 240 years old!

The Marine Corps has distinguished itself as one of, if not the best, fighting force in the world!

Semper Fidelis! (Always Faithful)

Please join me in wishing the U.S. Marine Corps HAPPY BIRTHDAY!happy birthday

Hi Jim wave

I am so grateful no son, brother partner or father of mine have ever had to wear any such uniform...

And pls God, thats the way it will remain...
don't think this heart of mine could cope with the worry and stress of it all...
least of all the loss & hearbreak sad flower
