Last night we had a congratulations party for my nephew,, if you think your tough,, try a marines boot camp … you better be tough physically and mentally or you won’t make it. Officially a leatherneck, devil dog, United States marines. Even though I was having pain issues,,, I still made it a priority to be there,,, I can at least be tough for him [Linked Image]

Those dress blues sure are sharp. Congratulations to him!

Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

I read a quote once that the most dangerous thing in the world is a marine with a rifle. Congratulations.
