... Happy 245th Birthday Marines !! Took that pic in April of last year at my daughter's Parris Island graduation ceremony. The parade ground was assaulted during the ceremony by a battalion sized assault force of cloaked, airborne, multilegged biting creatures appropriately called "No-See-Ums". Luckily, a wind picked up and foiled their relentless attack. Signed - Proud Father of a Marine, ML

  -  reluctant_hobby_farmer @laruetactical not a big "Covid" believer anyway.
  -  reluctant_hobby_farmer @will_barks_az we watched it live on Facebook. Awesome to see, but in person would have been better. Especially for them. They need to see their son. Dad is a Marine and very proud. Nervous and proud all at the same time 🙂 We are all proud of him though.
