Happy Birthday from an Army guy that served under Reagan and stood on the west side of the wall just before it fell. Semper Fi!

So the Marines are still around?

Are they still part of the Navy or did the Navy wise up?

Do the SOBs still upchuck all over the Navy's decks or did the Marines get their own Navy too?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY you bunch of drunken show offs    ;D ;D ;D

It was mentioned to a grizzled marine that the corps is  a Department of the Navy.

"Yes," he replied. "The mens department!"

Happy birthday, and semper fi,

It is no longer the "Dept of the Navy".
For the last couple years it has been "The Dept of the Navy and Marine Corps".
Why would we need our own ships ?
We've already got the worlds most expensive taxi service.
