Tribute to United States Marine Corps

 

 

"Once A Marine Always A Marine"

 

 
"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous)

 

Semper Fi! Heart

 

 
Some may wear the uniform
And even look the part
But to truly be a real Marine
You must have a "Semper-Fi-Heart"
This "Heart" is not Earned in Boot camp
But is "Developed" along the "Way"
And it "Grows" because of "Dedication"
Through "Service" each and every day
"Semper" is Latin for "Always"
"Fidelis" means "Faithful" and "True"
"Faithful" when things don't go your way
And "Faithful" when they do
You may not understand the rationale
Nor even know the reason why
But the "mission" will be "Accomplished"
When your "Heart" is Semper-Fi."
