Happy 140th Birthday to the Marine Corps and Thank you for your service.
As a side note, my dear friend Russ is celebrating today also- 50th anniversary of his graduation from boot camp.
Here's a close up of his Harley - a proud and active member of the Patriot Guard.

Actually it is 240 years of proud tradition and B.S., often unhampered by progress....Semper Fi. :lol: :lol:

I realized too late to correct this I had made a huge math error- My deepest apologies to the Marines. I knew they were organized by the Continental Congress on Nov 10,1775. I really don't know why I didn't figure it out sooner that I was off by a hundred years. Believe me, I was calling myself all sorts of names when I recognized my mistake
