Marine's rock by the way.

Well, Mike, even though we've never spoken to one another, you can count me in on this group of Marines.

There was a saying we were taught while going through Recruit Training that goes, "Nobody WANTS to have to fight, but SOMEBODY has to know how!" I think, perhaps, this may be the common sentiment amongst the Marines you HAVE spoken with.

And by the way, did you just call me a "rock"?
