Nice pictures! My wife and I made visit to the memorial several years ago. We had the opportunity to see this honor and respect salute paid to our fallen bothers. Made me teary eyed and proud to be a Marine. Semper FI!! Cpl. G. Suniga 0361 Vietnam 63/65.

The greatest calling I have ever had was to be selected to be a leader of Marines. I formed bonds that no government, ISIS, commies or any other foe could ever break. I have concerns that our “do-gooders” will have some adverse effect on Marine training. The pics bring back memories of a time that was “bitter – sweet”.

They make all of proud to be a Marine. None of the other services have anything like the Marine Corps. Look at the Army, they had to come up with something to match OOH RAH. So the came up with Whoop. Now if you watch much TV you must have seen the Army recruiting commercial that says for 241 years they have been protecting America, and even that is not a true statement because the Army totally disbanded for a short time after the Revolution. They all want to copy us, but they don’t want to put themselves through our training to earn the title.

Brother Marine, I totally agree with you on the fact that some Marines of today have no pride nor respect for that matter. I have witnessed it first hand since I live near an Air Wing Marine Base. I have an idea of what has gone wrong with our beloved Marine Corps. “MOTHERS of AMERICA!” Once they stuck their noses into Marine Corps training, everything seems to have gone down the s#!++er. Just my opinion. Semper Fi! Sgt. Apodaca-RVN

Great pictures. The pride shows with total respect for our brothers. The Corps will forever run through my veins and I forever be proud to have worn the most beautiful uniform in the world. Nobody can touch us. Semper Fi!
