Semper Fi to a Marine brother and one of the few who were awarded the MOH and lived to tell about it. I had occasion to visit the Army personnel who run the burial details out of Ft. Myer and you can bet the burial ceremony will bring tears to your eyes.

I am sure he would care if he were alive...have you ever served your nation or do you try to have bravado as a civilian only?
