May 27, 1968. Ponce De Leon Avenue induction center, Atlanta, Georgia. It was “Count off! 1-2-3-4”.

When it was finished, “Congratulations! All you number 4s are Marines!”

You’re just jealous.

“If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven’s scenes,
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines.”
