As a retired soldier, I both admire and respect the Marine Corps as I do every man and woman in uniform. And I salute each and every one of them for the sacrifices they have made. May God bless them all.
That's a quote of something the late John Fitzgerald Kennedy said. And it fit. But, as a Navy man who served eight years with Fleet Marine Forces I am more prone to that said by Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz:
Are you kidding me? What kind of difference do you think they have done? They are a bunch of followers who cant tell you why they are fighting..and dont tell me its for our freedom because I havent seen anyone struggling to live around here. They get paid big bucks to fight, sure, they seen some injustices but isnt that everywhere? And I've made a difference..I help keep lives, not destroy them.
