For every one hundred men you send us,
Ten should not even be here. Eighty are nothing but targets. Nine of them are real fighters; We are lucky to have them, they the battle make. Ah, but the one. One of them is a warrior. And he will bring the others back. -Heraclitus 500 BC I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do. Robert A. Heinlein “Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.

IT IS TRIBULATIONS THAT WILL OFFER THE PAIN NEEDED TO BUY THE TRUTH, AND AT LAST, EACH WILL OWN THE PRIVILEGE OF LOOKING INSIDE HIMSELF TO DISCOVER WHAT TRULY RESIDES THERE." -Unknown |

Marines I see as two breeds, Rottweilers or Dobermans, because Marines come in two varieties, big and mean, or skinny and mean. They're aggressive on the attack and tenacious on defense. They've got really short hair and they always go for the throat.

The instructor was wrong to assume that simply because you brought a certain brand product to the range you know anything at all about shooting. |

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
Mark 8:36 They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate.” --Edmund Burke. "The Saxon is not like us Normans. His manners are not so polite. But he never means anything serious till he talks about justice and right. When he stands like an ox in the furrow – with his sullen set eyes on your own, And grumbles, 'This isn't fair dealing,' my son, leave the Saxon alone. "You can horsewhip your Gascony archers, or torture your Picardy spears; But don't try that game on the Saxon; you'll have the whole brood round your ears. From the richest old Thane in the county to the poorest chained serf in the field, They'll be at you and on you like hornets, and, if you are wise, you will yield. --Kipling |

President Ronald Reagan |
