Chuck Norris is 66 years old, If this guy is his dad he really is a Superman. It means he produced Chuck at 4 years old. LOL Nice try though.

Believe it or not, that flag was similar to the one I created when I was in Navy Bootcamp in San Diego! Even the Motto was the same!!!
Wow!

Cool flag!

Old Marines don't become docile....or get defanged
We simply must lie in wait until the enemy comes to us..
Our wheels and lungs just aren't up to running to the sound of battle -- we must await patiently until the battle comes to us..

This thug stepped into the wrong crowd to pull his crap.

Soon folks -- it will come to all of us.
Right here in America...
Arm thy selves..

Just goes to show don't mess with a (former) Marine.

That's retired Marine. The only former Marines are the ones dishonorably discharged or dead.

but it's completely righteous that he inspired all the rest of the oldsters to kick some badguy @ss, too.

Leadership by good example ...

Can you imagine Marine Basic Training in circa 1945? When the 70 year old went through Marine Basic.

Gunnery Sgt Hartmann, would have been too nice.

The way to tell the difference is that cab drivers in Costa Rica can speak English.

what the hell is up with 'retired Marine' As I've always understood it, 'Once a Marine, Always a Marine'

N Y Sun's understanding of a Marine separated from Active Duty.

Yup, the Marines in 1945 would mold eight year olds into fighting machines, to kick Jap butt from one end of the Pacific to the other.

(2007 - 70 = 1937)
