After spending 7 years active duty in the marine corps I heartily agree with parts of the things Col. Jessup had to say. We were out there "on the wall" but I would never defend what he did to bring about the initial crime to the marine who died. I just think people in their heart of hearts think we marines are "grotesque creatures" but we did and still perform an important function for this country. Former USMC KathyG.
while I may never truly know the truth...some things I do not need to know....great scene from a movie that, more than we want to realize, represents our everyday world....why do we hold ourselves above the acceptable norms..??.. afre we holding out for the 72 virgins..??..

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...Wow! What a ride!" Melvin Trotter 1924-2006

I've got opinions about dang near everything. Not only that, I'm retired so I've got the time to tell you them. I keep my mouth shut and my ears open and read a lot. Sometimes I add 2 + 2 and get 5, sometimes I add 2 + 2 and get 4. I strive to abide by the "Fina Philosophy" that "Old Lonesome George" espoused: Work hard, sell a good product, don't try to kid anybody.
