By all accounts she was a great Marine but she would likely have been an even better wife and mom.

Eternal Father, grant, we pray,
To all Marines, both night and day,
The courage, honor, strength, and skill
Their land to serve, thy law fulfill;
Be thou the shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps.

Those of you who have never lived near a Marine Corps Base may not recognize the beautiful words of the Marine Corps version of the Navy hymn, "Eternal Father".
