Thank you to all who have sacrificed so much for all of us.

What people don't realize is how much they really do sacrifice
I believe all but one in the photograph eventually became a casualty.

The pharmacist's mate, the guy on the far left. His son wrote a book: Flags of Our Fathers
I’m told one of them died about 3 days after the photo, never making it off the island. The others died within 4-5 years (alcoholism was a factor, as was fame and unexpected publicity for a couple of them.)

It was all just a dream...

And thank you, bobink, for yours.
It may be a day of memorial for the deceased, but it is also a day of appreciatiion for those who serve now, and those who once served and lived. I’m looking at you, bobink. I may be 42 years late, but I am sincere. Happy Memorial Day.

Thanks to all who have served
A special shout out to Nuggie vets, however many there are and may yet be.
You cannot reason a man out of something he didn't reason himself into in the first place.

As a former US Marine drilling in Boise, thank you.

I thought there wasn't such a thing
as a former Marine! Then I remembered Jack Murtha. But thanks for your service, man.

Close
…but there’s no such thing as an Ex- Marine. Once a Marine, always a Marine.

Even Murtha?
Who essentially called our troops in Iraq cold-blooded murderers? He should have lost his Marine cred right then and there. Rot in hell, Jack.
