Thanks to all who have served. Happy Birthday US Marine Corps.
 
Thanks. Semper Fi and a big OOORAH! to all my fellow jarheads! Happy 241st!

Which is one of two things that made me feel old today. First, I was in for the 200th birthday. Second, during a cake-cutting ceremony today, the youngest Marine was introduced as having been born in 1997. I retired in 1996! :confused:

At today's ceremony the youngest marine was 68

And thanks for posting this reminder. I sent a happy birthday wish to a friend who served with the Marines in Viet Nam as a helicopter gunner. He has some significant health problems probably from Agent Orange exposure. He was surprised that I knew about the date and grateful.
