I just wanted to take a minute to remind everyone that today is the 235th birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps

As the father of a Marine 1st Lt and the father-in-law of a V-22 Osprey Crew member, both serving in the combat zone, I have come to know that today is a special day, if you are a Marine.

To all the Marines who call the Lakes Region home, Happy 235th

AT SEA AND ASHORE, MARINES HAVE SUCCEEDED IN EVERY CLIME AND PLACE. WHERE HARDSHIP AND ADVERSITY HAVE OFTEN BEEN THE COMMON THREAD. TO OUR LOVED ONES WHO ENDURE THE MANY DIFFICULTIES THAT COME WITH BEING PART OF THE MARINE FAMILY, I WANT TO EXTEND MY SINCEREST THANKS FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND ALL YOU CONTINUE TO DO. ... HAPPY 235TH BIRTHDAY, MARINES. JAMES F. AMOS, GENERAL, COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS
