“Retreat Hell! We’re just attacking in another direction.”

(Attributed to Major General Oliver P. Smith, USMC, Korea, December 1950.)

My husband was in the Marines ‘59-’63, and if he could, he would wish the very best for you. God speed!

Prayers of gratitude for you father’s service as a Marine.
Also prayers for healing of this dreaded disease.

Two memorable quotes from Marines in the Battle of Belleau Wood, June 1918:

"Come on, you sons of bitches! Do you want to live forever?"

"Retreat? Hell, we just got here."

The author of the first saying, Sgt. Maj. Dan Daly, is one of only 19 Americans to have won the Medal of Honor twice. He claimed that what he actually said was, "For Christ's sake, men, come on! Do you want to live forever?"
