"In the Marine Corps, I was used to people doing what they said and saying what they mean." -- I don't have a chance to join the Marines, but THIS is what I miss most in people. Integrity. Consistency. Words and actions in alignment with each other. Thanks for sharing this quote. I work in the film industry, which is pretty much structured like the military, but at the same time, there's a huge lack of integrity and emotional decision-making going on that's just problematic. The best experience I had was working with military vets on our projects who always said out loud what they actually meant and wouldn't tiptoe around anybody's "feelings".
After my father's passing, I was told what he said to family and friends when word got out that I had joined the Marines... "My son joined the Corps because he is not afraid to do that which is hard." At 50, I can still say to this day, it was the best life decision I ever made. Semper Fi!
With the world going to hell in a handbasket, being a Marine is one of the few sanity points I have. 1976-1982. It was right at the end of Boot Camp when the Senior Drill Instructor took a branding iron and burned an EGA on my soul. It does not wash away, fade with time or can be willed away. Semper Fidelis! BTW, I still don't like Dead Man in a Seabag!! 😆
Nobody understood why I wanted to join the military, at my age. I think I was 24 or 25 at the time. I said I want to go right now. The Army said, but wait you're already in the Marines. I said then you know what I'm capable of. Let's go. So they had me sign a form and I went. And the rest is in the ether, because I don't exist. Except for my country.
Semper Fi!! All Devil Dogs Go to Heaven To Protect The Pearly Gates! Once A Marine! Always A Marine! I Take Proud of Being Called a JARHEAD! I Hold My Head Up High And Challenge All Those That Oppose Me !!!!!!!!
The Marine Corps served with distinction in ‘Nam. They did more, with less. As always. They suffered many casualties. My oldest brother served as a Marine there. He made it back home. To be honest, I’m really not sure what you are implying and how it relates to my video.

I am delivering a sermon to you 🙏😊 please read Consistently Pray for forgiveness, guidance in a good (positive) direction, and for help against evil. Pray to be saved from hell (whatever that may be). Pray for your friends and your family too, it only takes a minute or so/less at a time to pray. Do it and your life will slowly get better, or maybe quickly. It probably just depends on you and the kind of person you are/have been. Don't wait until its too late and you have to suffer the consequences of built up bad karma from immoral acts/unrepented sins. Maybe together we can help make the world a better place by changing ourselves for the better, and changing things around us for the better. And addressing/thanking the CREATOR, LORD GOD at the beginning and end of your prayers would be a good idea 😊 Or just be my friend if you don't want to say the prayer 😄 I'm trying to help you get right with the LORD 🙏 Amen. I have worded a short prayer for you to say if you are not sure what words to use, it may not be the best but here it is 😊 '' CREATOR, LORD GOD, Please forgive me and my friends and my family for our immoral acts, please help guide us in a positive direction and please help us against evil. Please save us from Hell and have mercy on our souls. Thank you CREATOR, LORD GOD. Amen. '' Please say this at least once a day for at least a month, do it longer if you want to and can 🙏 You should prostrate yourself if you don't want to do spoken prayer, or do both 🙏😊 Please worship the LORD GOD and not any idol. Please put your hands together 🙏 bow your head and say this prayer: "CREATOR, LORD GOD, please know that I worship you and not any idols. Thank you for everything CREATOR, LORD GOD. Amen" Say ' Om Namah Shivaya ' out loud or in your head 108 times, or try to do it 1008 times 😊 try to do it everyday if you want repeat this aloud for as long as you want to, try to do it for like an hour a day or say it in a prayer "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner" 🙏🙏🙏 You can also say this prayer once a day or repeat it aloud as many times as you would like to: "Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen." Thessalonians 5:16-18 "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." Philippians 4:6-7 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." "O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You!" Repeat this aloud at least 3 times or as many as you want, do it everyday if you can I apologize for all the words 😊 I know how it may look
Or, be advised, just do what Paul said; "that if you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved, for with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Romans 10:9,10., from the son of a WW2 Marine Raider.
