“It’s a funny thing, but, as years go by, I think you appreciate more and more what a great thing it was to be a United States Marine… People will tell me what a shame it was I had to go back into the service a second time, but I’m kinda glad I did.. Besides, I am a U.S. Marine and I’ll be one till I die.” - – - Ted Williams
“Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have made a difference to the world, but the Marines don’t have that problem.” – - – Ronald Reagan
“They’re on our right, they’re on our left, they’re in front of us, they’re behind us; they can’t get away from us this time.”
