I met Chesty Puller at Quantico in 1969. In this long life of mine, I haven’t met anyone whose mere presence was a impressive as that man. I hope you can live up to the name(just kidding, no one could)

The thought of being of base in fatigues just doesn’t seem Marine.

Hell no! I fought war pretty well, but there ain't no Navy Crosses in my closet.
