yeah ..yeah l ...yeah... ;D

We all saw the march to Bagdad....Marines up one side, the Army up the other....3rd Inf Div., in fact, an old Alma Matrer of mine.

We all would have gotten there sooner if we didn't have to wait for the Marines to have a parade every few days   ;D ;D ;D

Happy Birthday, Gyrenes!!...you do earn your keep and look pretty spiffy when you ain't doing it.

My Grandpa was a Leatherneck in WW1. The rest of us have been dog faces except 2 cousins 1 Navy 1 Leatherneck. The Dog faces in my family have been many places. Uncle with General Patton throughout WW2. Dad 25th ID Korea. Uncle Ranger Vietnam. Brother Panama. 3 cousins and myself Iraq and Afgan. So family reuions are the same we give each other he!!. To bad that Grandpa, Dad and the older warriors of my family are gone. They never talked about what happened to them. I always wondered why and after being there I know now. There is nothing good to talk about. Dad always said only fools want to see war. Every once in awhile you would hear Dad talk to one of my uncles about almost freezing to death and fighting hand to hand, and that is all you would hear. They would just shake their head and say been there done that.
