The initial verse of the Marine Hymn is "From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli." "Montezuma" refers to the Battle of Chapultepec, more commonly known as the battle which took place during the Mexican-American War; "Tripoli" refers to the First Barbary War and the Battle of Derne.

We had some snow early this week. Signs of severe winter to come?

Oh, Marines can be silly. But watch out, because the little ones might be the ones to bite you on the ankle and never, ever let go.

Thanks for noticing, but you know my response is always the same....”I know the order of the flags is not exactly correct, but I have purposefully taken a bit of poetic license”.
