I do remember our Conor served proudly & valiantly in that unit Bigs & thank you for the reminder.
That unit is expeted home soon & someone I love is with them so I have been following them closely.
The Marines there have made amazing progress in the region haven’t they!

Doc's moniker was off to the end of the ping list and unseen but I ought to have known you'd remember. My apologies for the blunder.
There was a tale that Hitler's great fear was that his Wehrmacht would have to face off with the Marines...and as Doc mentioned, the loss at Belleau Wood gave him reason to fear them....and name them.
