A Contrast of Style and Personality


Since November 10, 1775, United States Marines have been willing and eager to fight, and even die, for their country when sent into harms way by their commander-in-chief, regardless who occupies that office at any given time. Their respect for the office has never waned; their respect and admiration for the occupant of the office, though, can vary. That fact is manifestly clear in the above video.

God bless the U. S. Marine Corps – the finest fighting machine the world has ever seen.

Semper Fidelis!

Note: Please click on the You Tube icon on the video and then on (more info) in the upper right corner to see how the current administration attempted to "spin" this video, attributing the difference in the level of enthusiasm on the part of the Marines to the different forums in which the meetings were held. It doesn't work.
