A former Force recon Marine told me once, "If you tell the Army to take an Airstrip, you'll get it but it'll take 3 days. You tell the Marines and you'll have the airstrip in 3 hours. You may have a thousand dead Marines, but you'll hav ethat airstrip." It gives a whole new meaning to "Git 'er done!"

And you know why. Because in those 3 days the Marines save, our Air can come in and use that base to kill 10,000 of the enemy, that otherwise would be killing our troops.
