"Now it's the night of the game," he said. "And the varsity is taking the field. We're ready."

Yes, ain't they great? I have always admired the USMC, they are true warriors!

"Ten thousand Gobs laid down their swabs to whip one sick Marine, ten thousand more stood by and swore it was the dangedest fight they'd ever seen!"

We, the U.S.S. Catskill LSV-1(my ship)landed Marines on Leyte, P.I. Oct. 20, 1944 initial assault and again on Okinawa Shima, Ryukyu, Japan April 1st 1945 initial assault.

My brother-in-law Ernest Alphons Jacobi with the Sixth Marine Division was wounded on the 23rd of June 1945 and died on the 30th of June 1945 of his wounds.

The U.S Marines are the greatest fighting Force ever assembled, and no less can be said about the U.S. Army's foot-slogging Infantry or the Rangers or the Paratroops or the Special Forces or the U.S. Navy Seals.

May Almighty God keep them all safe from harm and from evil!
