I don't know anyone personally, as in a friend, (present company excepted), that was also in the Corps. If I did, I'd have a brewsky with him or her. Semper Fi

We're having our annual celebration breakfast this Thursday honoring our employees and ex-employees who are veterans and we invite the local VFW colorguard and give them a donation, usually $10k.
We have quite a few veterans here, we just finished installing a new very large lighted flag pole and the veterans are going to perform the ceremony of raising the new flag for the first time. |

I spent about 7 Marine Corps birthdays with the Marines. Great groups of folks to be around, especially when things go bad...

Same as each year - a short tumbler of Wild Turkey on the rocks and a few moments reflection of those that didn't come back.
Live your life as if it may end ...tomorrow.
