    The "Marines' Hymn" is the official hymn of the United States Marine Corps, introduced by the first Director of USMC Band, Francesco Maria Scala. It is the oldest official song in the United States Armed Forces. The "Marines' Hymn" is typically sung at the position of attention as a gesture of respect. However, the third verse is also used as a toast during formal events, such as the birthday ball and other ceremonies. Western Illinois University uses the hymn prior to all football games. They are the only non-military academy allowed to use the hymn. The university has had permission to use the official nickname, mascot, and hymn of the Corps since 1927.

    “They fought liked devils, they howled like wolves in the night. They make us stay up late, too scared to sleep. It seems that satan has unleashed his devil dogs into us. It’s only a matter of time until they come to fetch our souls.” ~ German Officer, 1918.

He was wounded at Iwo Jima by a grenade, and was sent back to the states. He passed in 2003 at the age of 77. SEMPER FI Great Grandpa and keep the streets of Heaven guarded.

    “When you’re working with Army and Marine Corps units, you immediately notice a difference. The Army is pretty tough, but their performance can depend on the individual unit. Some are excellent, filled with hoorah and first-class warriors. A few are absolutely horrible; most are somewhere in between. In my experience, Marines are gung ho no matter what. They will all fight to the death. Every one of them just wants to get out there and kill. They are bad-ass, hard-charging mothers.”

      I don't know if your dad is proud of Vietnam or wants you to join the army though...
      You're still young, keep your mind open and and try to research the nature of war before you decide anything.

      @@ghosty0612 Yes, I agree with you, don't join the army. Instead, join the marines.

    I was attached to 2nd Marine Division in Operation Desert Storm as a soldier. The Marines needed the Bradley Fighting Vehicle to go knock out The Republican Guard on Saddam Hussein. I was proud as punch to say when my Company Commander asked me what Vehicle was ready to go and I said HQ-25 as we were servicing vehicles. The Bradley Tow Missle System packs a hell of a punch when you need it. The Lav-25 Vehicles that theorises were using had no missles equipped on it. Just a 25mm Bushmaster gun and 7.62 coaxial machine gun. I told the Marine Captain to get some! He grinned. The fireworks were amazing! Flattened the hell out them all. Our M-1 Abrahm Tanks blew the enemy tanks away. Smoking wrecked T-72, T,-55, and T-62 Tanks riddled everywhere like burnt toast to be sure! You could smell it! That and fighter and bombers pulverised the enemy like hamburger! Ooorah! HHC 3rd Brigade 2nd Armored Division Tiger Brigade. Fort Hood, Texas 76554. Respect, Love, and Honour to all who serve and to our veterans! God Bless. You are the heroes of this modern day. Your service guarantees our freedom and liberties that so many in Hollywood and the left wing lunatic have no appreciation for as their children are not serving! Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg, Madonna, Ashley Judd, and Bruce Springsteen. Stand on the wall with rifle and rucksack. Simper Fidelis!
