To all of the Leathernecks of the past, thank you for giving us our proud heritage, For watching my back and bleeding with me

To all of the present DevilDogs, Thank you for keeping my family and friends safe, and keeping our way of life intact

To all the future Marines that will go to/are in SDMCRC or go to PIMCRC, you will learn our heritage, and will uphold the future of our beloved Marine Corp


Semper Fi, My Brothers


Ron

From the halls of Montezuma,
To the shores of Tripoli;
We fight our country's battles
In the air, on land, and sea;
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze
From the dawn to setting sun;
We have fought in every clime and place
Where we could take a gun;
In the snow of far-off northern lands
And in sunny tropic scenes;
You will find us always on the job
The United States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps
Which we are proud to serve;
In many a strife we've fought for life
And have never lost our nerve;
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven's scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marine

Semper Fidelis brothers.

Thanks to all Marines past and present for so valiantly defending our freedoms.
