You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

Happy birthday to the USMC, and remember, no matter what the alcohol says, you can celebrate the 250th birthday with your pants on.

Simper Fidelis Marine.
My Father in law at 93 decided that he wanted to take his Daughter to the Ball this year.

He looks good for 93... I see he had some time in the Army before the Marine Corps...
Dedicated.

Yes sir I thought you would notice the combat infantry badge. He spent some unpleasant time in Korea.
