Amen! Thanks to all who have served, in the Marines, and all branches of service! And their families. People don't realize how much military families have to sacrifice, having to move all the time, separation from their family members on deployment, etc.
I served 22 years as an active duty USAF officer, had several Joint assignments, and ALWAYS had the deepest respect for the Marines. The self proclaimed "little green amphibious monsters" have been protecting our country since the late 1700s.
