UNITED STATES MARINES


By David M. Bilyeu
GySgt, USMC, Retired


Once upon a time,
a very long time ago.
A group of men together,
formed the Eagle, Anchor and Globe.

Throughout twenty-three decades,
we've been put through every test.
And with each and every encounter;
We've proved we were the best.

Whether it be a youngster,
just brand new in the Corps.
Or one of the survivors,
when we had fought World Wars.

You can tell that we're the best,
with each and every stride.
Cause no matter what we do,
you can always see our pride.

There are no others like us;
and it is plainly seen.
Just why they always call;
Upon the United States Marines.

"Semper Fidelis"

Wow!

This is truly awesome poem for all marines. I really loved and thanks for sharing it.

Royal marines are an unstoppable fighting unit. They are reputed as being dauntless and their success rate in missions is near perfect. Certain qualities are a must for a highly trained royal marine officer. Physical fitness is a must and they require that all recruits have a ‘commando state of mind’. Recruits are expected to be resilient and have high energy levels. Perseverance is a quality that is a must be become a successful royal marine officer. This is because royal marines normally work in extreme environments from mountains to deserts. A good marine must be a leader, must be in great physical condition and must have good personal skills.
