I have been in the trusted "care" of MARINES many times in my long tenure... and there are NONE BETTER ! In Korea, the only thing tougher than a MARINE was a TURK.... with the difference being that you could "trust" a MARINE and you never took your eyes off a TURK.
Invictus, I remember well the reputation of the Turks who fought in Korea.
I understand they thought it imperative that if their sword were drawn, they were obligated to dispatch an enemy with it - and always DID.
I am delighted you have been with us on this happy occasion, and hope you will return often.
Snow Bunny and Billie have a new thread every day, with a new theme to honor our military.
Thank you so much for coming!
(I nag pretty effectively, don't I?!)
