Where there are two of us gathered together, there shall be a party … in fact, I had just that experience just last night when running into a pre-VN era Marine on an electric scooter in our local Safeway grocery store. Happy New Year, Leathernecks, and success to the Marines!

Hmmm..."Before Washington's bold and successful amphibious assault on the British at Trenton, the Continental Marines led by Marine Major Samuel Nicholas became part of a larger militia force" Perhaps a path to redemption whereby the Corps survives CMC's Forcec Design by again becoming a part of a larger militia...please excuse my holiday gallows humor but was a passing tantalizing thought.
