In honor of the 233rd birthday of the United States Marine Corps, Leslie and I attended a local celebration along with other Marines from the area. The participants ranged in age from a 29 year old former Lance Corporal, to an 89 year old former fighter squadron mechanic who served on Guadalcanal in 1942. In keeping with tradition, we honored all Marines; past, present, and future. Semper Fi!
