[ARC5] Happy 247th Birthday Marines

[n2lxm at juno.com]

To All My Brother and Sister Marines,

Happy Birthday. 247 Years old and going strong.


The U.S.M.C. is over 247 years of romping, stomping, hell, death and

Destruction. The finest fighting machine the world has ever seen.

We were born in a bomb crater, our mother was an M-16 and our father

Was the devil.

Every moment that I live is an additional threat upon you life.

I am a rough looking, roving soldier of the sea. I am cocky.
Self-centered,

Overbearing, and I do not know the meaning of fear, for I am fear itself.

I am a green, amphibious monster made of blood and guts who arose from
the

Sea, festering on anti-Americans throughout the globe. Whenever it may
arise,

And when my times comes, I will die a glorious death on the battlefield,
giving

My life to mom, the corps and the American flag.

We stole the eagle from the Air force, the anchor from the navy, and the
rope

>From the Army. And on the 7th day, while God rested, we over-ran his
perimeter

And stole the globe, and we've been running the show ever since.

We live like soldiers and talk like sailors and slap the hell out of both
of them.

Soldier by day, lover by night, drunkard by choice MARINE BY GOD.
