I proudly served for 20 years, 4 months and 17 days if I was to count. God Bless the Marines, and God Bless these United States.

Iwo; the real Heros of today. I have a couple of pounds of Iwo sand. I give as a gift to my closest friends.
When I was at the Marine Corps Unniversity, I would present all my students with a vial of the sacred sand. Long Live the Corps.

My mom was (is) a marine in WW2. As my mom says, "once a Marine, always a Marine". She taught me to appreciate and respect this country. Made sure the whole family stood up every time a flag would go by in the 4th of July parade in our little home town. Did that even when it was not a popular thing to do like in the 70's, 80's and 90's. People would look at us like we were wierd. And she is still doing it. Since 9-11 everone stands for the flags at the 4th of July parade. Love ya ma! Semper Fie!
