KANE'OHE — There are two types of Marines, Gen. Michael W. Hagee, commandant of the Marine Corps, told Marines and sailors here yesterday.

"Those who are over in the Gulf right now," he said, "and those who wish they were over in the Gulf right now."

Three thousand voices roared in agreement.

Hagee, accompanied by Sgt. Maj. of the Marine Corps Alford L. McMichael, delivered his motivational talk to the troops after a flag-raising ceremony yesterday morning at Marine Corps Base Hawai'i. The base was also acknowledged for receiving an award from the Marine Corps Center for Safety Excellence.
