March is a month of change and it is a bridge to the months of warmth.
It varies in weather from cold to warm, sometimes both in the same day.

Below are some thoughts by Major Clebe McClary USMC (retired)...we try to do or live by those thoughts...

PIG (Professional, Integrity, Guts) “One needs to be professional, folks, he said. Be responsible. If you make a mistake, don’t blame somebody else. Take a stand.”

PRIDE (Personal Responsibility in Daily Effort) “Pride in coming early and staying late, pride in shining your shoes, tucking your shirt tail in, he said. “We’re gonna change the world and we can’t make up our beds? Something’s wrong.”

FIDO (Forget It and Drive On) “Make a mistake, learn from it, forget it and drive on, he said. “Don’t let somebody else’s life ruin your life.”

"They were the best you had, America,
and you turned your back on them".
~ Joe Galloway ~ Speaking about Vietnam Veterans

TO THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES
THAT OTHERS MAY SAY PROUDLY
I AM A MARINE
