November 10th = An old Jarhead thanking all those who served and/or support the military, especially the Navy, for making the need that brought about the birth of the Corps possible...
May God who blessed our ancestors, bless the Marine Corps of the United States of America, shielding them from trouble and anguish, from injury and illness. May God send blessing through the work of their hands and may the words of the prophet be established through their service: “They shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, nor shall they train for war any more. They shall sit, each one, under his vine and under his fig tree, and none shall make them afraid,” [Micah 4:3-4]
