    ..on ships at sea ready for action
    ..at Pendleton and Lejeune
    ....''in the sunny Mid East scenes''...
    ..in the snow of the ''far off'' Chosin--where my father and 3 uncles fought


    If the Army and the Navy
    Ever look on Heaven's scenes,
    They will find the streets are guarded
    By United States Marines.
    OORAH

    here --at the Chosin --the Marines were surrounded and outnumbered, but fought back and marched relentlessly--unstoppable-- back to the sea
    30 below zero temps..hills..ice..snow..cold...tired....hungry

    A man walks into a bar and takes seat at the bar.

    "Hey, barkeep, got a Marine joke for you."

    "Buddy, I'm a Marine, those guys playing pool are Marines, and everybody sitting at this bar is a Marine.

    The man blushes deeply and says "Sorry, I'll tell it real slow."

    That one was told to me by a one-legged Gunny. He had a great sense of humor.
