Sunday is Veterans day, try to do something to honor a veteran you know and make them feel appreciated.







I know the flag below was not done for Veterans day but it would be nice if something like this were to be done on that day to honor our veterans.

Veterans Day generally overshadows the Marine Corps Birthday but we Marines like to celebrate it much harder than any other day. It's fun having 2 Birthdays in a year.

The USMC Birthday is also Nov 11?
In that case, here's to the Teuflehunden! :toast:

I probably should have known that, I got my FMF pin while working with I MEF and then II MEF in the desert a couple years ago.

Great idea. I will follow suit. I don't think even a dirtbag like me could go so low to give coke to a vet.

So... who is gonna buy me a beer? :D

I'll be in Nebraska for the Wildcat / Husker game. I'll be the one in purple.

If at the stadium, a nice large coke or pepsi will do just fine.

By the way you've talked in the past I thought you were an ex-Marine!?

For the record the Marines Birthday is November 10, Veterans Day is November 11. If there were going to be an overshadow it would be the Marines over Vets Day.

I'll be at the Marine Ball again this year, celebrating with my brothers.

Thank you, it's my best chance at actually having a retirement check someday. Figure another 5-7 years and I should be elgible, so why not.
