Happy 229th birthday to the Corps

[Ray Wallace]

For the few of you needing reminding, tomorrow is the 229th birthday of The Marine Corps. Thanks to them and their brothers and sisters in the other services for the past 2+ centuries, we have the freedom to bitch, moan, criticize, etc. without constraint. Thank a service person for doing their duty for you. Ray

Tonight I will tip a glass of quality scotch for the Corps.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, who gives that protester the freedom to abuse and burn that flag.
