“The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!” – Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945
“You cannot exaggerate about the Marines. They are convinced to the point of arrogance, that they are the most ferocious fighters on earth- and the amusing thing about it is that they are.” Father Kevin Keaney 1st Marine Division Chaplain Korean War
“A Ship without Marines is like a garment without buttons.” – Adm. David Dixon Porter, USN in a letter to Colonel Commandant John Harris, USMC, 1863
“For over 221 years our Corps has done two things for this great Nation. We make Marines, and we win battles.” – Gen. Charles C. Krulak, USMC (CMC); 5 May 1997
“Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don’t have that problem.” – Ronald Reagan, President of the United States; 1985
Happy Birthday to the United States Marine Corps! 239 years of service to this beautiful great nation.
So proud to say that I am part of the few and the proud.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed
to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I’m not very internet smart so I’m not 100% positive.
Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Appreciate it

Sorry this is really late, but honestly for me it didn’t take a lot. What really motivated me to get up and do this is someone who inspired me to get on with my creative side. As long as you have three things you can make a successful blog. Inspiration, dedication, and motivation. Without any of these I feel that any blog will fail. Don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t take off with flying colors the first time. Be patient. Sometimes you might not post something everyone can relate to and sometimes you hit something that sparks everyone’s interest. That’s the beauty of the art of creative writing. Sometimes you have to write what you really feel deep down. If people enjoy it, great! If they don’t, then its whatever. You just have to be really patient with it. Let me know if that helped at all and please keep in touch if you ever want anything else 🙂
