I've worn two uniforms in my life. The first was in the Boy Scouts, as an eagle scout (BSA is celebrating 100 yrs this year). The second was as a Marine sargent. Very proud of both... SEMPER FI, and happy birthday.

On this date in 1775, the first guy to sign on the dotted line in Tun Tavern in Philadelphia turned, looked at the second guy in line, and said "Things were different in the old Corps!"

"In my world travels the Marines I've seen have had the cleanest bodies and the filthiest minds, the highest moral and the lowest morals of any animal I've ever seen. God bless the Marine Corps!"
Eleanor Roosevelt

I agree! God bless the USMC!

Nice to see another Eagle Scout around. I received my Eagle in 2007.
