I couldn't have stated this any better..... thanks Smedley, and thanks to your husband,as well RS.....
My former Marine isn't just an average guy either
Did you ever find out about the plastic surgery for, Chelsea? :-)
Here is a little story about my "Devil Dog"...
My husband's oldest son was also a Marine, on a visit home last year, his son took his dad to lunch.
When they returned...my husband had a tattoo of the "Devil Dog" on his upper arm with the letters "USMC" under it.
My husband thought if he could make me laugh...I wouldn't faint at the sight of the tattoo. So he pulled-up his sleeve and said, "Look Hon, I got a tattoo of YOU on my arm! Damn, they spelled your name wrong!" (as he pointed to the letters, USMC)
