To the troops and Marines the very thought of driving over an explosive device or setting one off. is heavy on the minds of the soldiers and Marines every day. its hard some times to block that thought out. and those of you who had walked point in the nam know the feeling all to well. yes. you look out for your self. but also for the sqd members as well.....like 1st sgt Wade used to say." keep your (S) wired at all times." the mouse

"World Famous Body Bearers, The Last to Let You Down"

"Want to feel safe tonight? Sleep with a Marine"

"A man or woman is measured
by the footprint,
he or she leaves behind"

"They were the best you had, America,
and you turned your back on them".
~ Joe Galloway ~ Speaking about Vietnam Veterans

“Marines have always been physically and mentally tough.
We must keep squarely in our sights,
the fact that toughness can be decisive in combat.”
~ General Charles C. Krulak ~
31st Commandment of the Marine Corps

TO THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES
THAT OTHERS MAY SAY PROUDLY
I AM A MARINE

Semper Fidelis
Ricardo
