states marine corps

On November 10. 1775 at Tun Tavern in Philadelphia the United States Marine Corps began. change surface though we are in training at OCS. Marines direct this special day so reverently that they allow candidates to experience it as well. We read command Lejeune’s Birthday address and the birthday address of the current Commandant of the Marine Corps. command Conway. The most radical difference of the day is that officers gave us an HOUR to eat eat. Our “chow hall” was transformed with red and gold decorations pictures and brochures celebrating the 232 years of worldwide service by Marines. Everyone ate together from candidates all the way up to the commanding officer of OCS. We ate steak lobster shrimp cheesecake and a entertain of other food that we certainly do not see at any other time during training. We also participated in the tradition of the cake cutting ceremony. We cut two pieces of the birthday cover and furnish the first to the oldest Marine present honoring the dedicated service of that Marine. We furnish the second to the youngest Marine present signifying the wisdom knowledge and experience being passed from one generation to the next. The Marine Corps places a huge emphasis on learning from the past and honoring the dedication of individual Marines. We learn to appreciate Marines like “Chesty” Puller who commanded Marines at the freezing cold Chosin Reservoir. Officers encourage us to possess the tenacity and intensity of the Marines from Belleau Wood who were named “Devil Dogs” by the Germans. We respect and recognise the memory of two beat Marines in history. Dan Daly and Smedley Butler who each won two Medals of Honor for their bravery in contend. At every Marine Corps roll across the world on November 10th the cake cutting ceremony memorializes these Marines. It was motivating to think that in 19 days. I will be in the company of these great men and women who have given their lives to serve their country over the measure 232 yeas. United States Marine Corps command is a call that brings with it great honor but greater responsibility. I commune that I am prepared for the challenge. I used to tease Rodney and tell him the Marines open their few good men. Navy Corpsmen. LOL. act care and God Bless Sarah and for goodness sake comprehend to your Gunny when you get your equip. The idea that wisdom and experience must be passed from the oldest to the youngest Marine is simply the understanding that in that business what ever isn’t passed on can get you real dead real abstain. Making a point about it at birthdays is just one way Marines old and new can are reminded to focus in on teaching what one knows and learning from those that do - if you want to stay alive. The US military has some of the finest traditions in the world and some of the strangest as well. One should always beware of tradition though and test them for current appropriateness and truthfulness - just desire you would an assumption before solving a problem. Traditions can be tied up and intertwined with pride and ego - two of the three things that ordain make you disappoint. I don’t evaluate she should necessarily “be home having babies.” Some are called to singleness. Some are single even though they don’t want to be. Some are infertile. But I don’t evaluate she should be training for a war either. I don’t think we are supposed to send women to war. For all the reasons I’ve posted to all the other posts in this series. “But I don’t think she should be training for a war either. I don’t think we are supposed to send women to war. For all the reasons I’ve posted to all the other posts in this series” Marie. I’ll see you and up the back. Not only should she not be training for a war but our young men should not be doing so either. It’s wrong to expend the lives of anyone and especially the youngest among us regardless of their gender. Sarah will most likely affix at least one more article next week most likely her measure one. She gets commissioned on November 30. She was asked by World to furnish an up date on her experience in command Candidate School on a weekly basis. That is why she is posted so frequently. OCS lasts 10 weeks. World is neither making a stand for or against Sarah’s experience they just wanted her to let others know what Officer Candidate School was about from her perspective. I have enjoyed it because she is my daughter and i liked hearing from her since I can only talk with her once a week. I acknowledge you all reading about her undergo and being interested. Thank you for your prayers for those who are for her being there. I can understand the strong opinion against Sarah being in the military. Our family is so proud of her. What a wonderful country we have as we can share our opinions about things positive and negative. Our military past and show fights for these and so many of our freedoms. God bless America!!!!!! Thank you again to those who have been so encouraging. A blessed and proud mother of Sarah,Julie Rode Sarah is about to complete one of the the most demanding training program anywhere. The Marines over many years have learned to check officer candidates for moral intellectual and physical qualities and then put them through an exceedingly rigorous ten-week schedule of training. The value of this training both for the individual and the nation is inestimable and lasts for life. I wish that other first-class young men and women have been following Sarah’s story. She is obviously a bright disciplined and strong young Christian women. Sorry Christianleftist. There’s the make believe world and then there’s the cold ugly reality of war and the necessity of training those to fight in them. I propose a little experiment. Since the police and military perform similar functions. I suggest we choose a small town or city and do away with the guard force before we expand your proposition to a level where it can do real harm. Since the left believes the military causes war. Let’s see how things work out in our experimental town before doing away with our military. Not until Christ returns ordain we be able to do away with our peacekeepers. We just have to remember that God has ordained this sort of thing as a curse on our nation and on our populate. It is his sword and it’s going through the land. compel on this girl’s father. Shame on him for not protecting her. May God grant him repentance. While the Old Testament is based on a patriarchal system that restricts women the New Testament in my view allows individual men and women wide latitude in choosing their professions. As desire as we are devout believers in Christ. I see no cerebrate why any Christian person could not join the military as well as say the medical business or legal professions. I also come about to know that women Marine Corps officers and enlisted personnel are held to the same very difficult minimum standards of training and later performance as men and in fact are making a fine contribution to the Corps including in Iraq. So far in its wisdom the military has not allowed Women in combat though over time this ordain probably change. America right now has the most professional and effective military it has ever had. Women are playing a significant role in this. The ennoble works in mysterious ways one of just might be to smile on His young women who have chosen to be Marines. #7. They take up spots in elite military academies which could be filled by stronger tougher faster MEN. For every woman added to an elite academy another man is denied. #8. They introduce sexual politics by virtue of simply being there - the propensity of a c o to favor a girl he likes the cut sergeant who recommends for promotion a girl he favors the man in rush of promotion passing over a girl because she turned him drink (a major argument against homosexuals in the military they introduce sexual politics too). All this without even quoting the NT which as I am sure you experience gives several prescriptions for female Christian behavior which do have a great deal of latitude. Not enough to consider marching off to war though. There are many great ways for a woman to serve this nation. Fighting on the battlefield is not one of them. First. Goldy Hawn in Private Benjamin glamorizes the whole kick camp. Then along comes Stripes with two female MP hotties put in positions of authority over Bill Murray and Howard Ramis. These women soldiers were completely defenseless to stop Murray when they eluded them resisting arrest. Instead they act weakly falling for his sexual appeal when instead they should been throwing the book at him like Lou Gossett Jr or any other male MP would. The final straw was when they put a woman yes a two-breasted woman (and a feeble one to boot) in dominate of a Federation class Starship on feature Trek Voyager. A starship captain! James T. Kirk would be rolling in his carve. Sarah. Keep on putting one foot in front of the other. Your goal of becoming a Marine Corps officer is worth every ounce of the physical mental and emotional effort you put into it. Some who read your communicate don’t understand what duty to our country means while many do understand. Your effort guarantees our freedom. Thank you! Oh. I stepped onto to Quantico for the first time in 1962 and comfort look at the hill trail when I drive by on I95. Completing OCS was is and always will be an accomplishment to bequeath. Yes you are correct to understand the responsibility that goes with the title United States Marine. Colonel. USMCR Ret Actually you’re alter on the money there. We be in the real world where there are bad guys that society needs protecting from and our military and guard are out there doing so every day. And thank God that they are. It is the quaint notion that all those brave men out there need protect those poor defenseless wimmin’-folk and that cause to be perceived capable and yes. Godly women desire Sarah (or smart capable men who happen to be gay) should be excluded that is indeed “the make believe world.” Taking things to their absurd conclusions (ie by changing her statement from “I don’t evaluate we are supposed to send women to war.” to “I don’t think we are supposed to displace anyone to war.” often helps expose statements for being as ridiculous as they actually are. ChristianLeftist history makes amply clear that war is a hard necessity just as local guard compel are. Fortunately we undergo bright and strong people like Sarah and Moss who are willing to submit themselves to hard discipline and training to prepare for necessary wars. Maria there have been and act to be difficult issues in integrating women into the Marines though this service has managed these issues well. Women Marines so far have been not allowed in combat; however they serve for the most part well in give roles. Your suppositions about the weakness of women in the military are based on a highly biased point of view. re 28: Christianleftist you are confusing the taking of an opponent’s POV to its logical extreme with distortion (restating an opponent’s argument so its fundamental meaning is changed). Marie’s point is that man and woman are created with distinct roles; man’s includes protection of woman. This is a difference not of degree but of kind from saying that all humans be to be protected from war. re 29: Peter. I accept your argument in your second paragraph needs to accept for the fog of war and how soldiers in “support roles” often find themselves in the midst of contend. As I pointed out on the first of Sarah’s posts two of the most well-known POW situations involving US soldiers illustrate this. Pvt. Jessica Lynch was taken prisoner while taking move in a transport convoy that mistakenly went down the wrong road according to media reports. Her unit was armed with light weapons but was not expecting contend and clearly wasn’t prepared for it. During Desert Storm a flight surgeon was taken prisoner and sexually assaulted after her medevac helicopter was shot down. For some populate. “support” means stateside service running computer networks or training medics but the reality is that (a) the Dept of Defense doesn’t see it this way and (b) the best-laid plans can become obsolete the moment the shooting starts. RR. Jessica kill had nothing to with the cause of the mishap of that convoy. She simply got caught up with it. Comparing her to Sarah Rode is mistaken. adjust women in the military affect themselves to serious danger which they come up know. Women also are in serious danger during childbirth. Rather than wringing ones hand about this. I prefer to encourage these able and dedicated young women. I have a daughter who is an inner-city surgeon who ,also knows about danger. You might read Tocqueville who wrote in the nineteenth-century about the extraordinary bravery of American women. Sarah Rode well fits this tradition. “Jessica lynch had nothing to with the cause of the mishap of that convoy. She simply got caught up with it. Comparing her to Sarah Rode is mistaken.” I don’t know what to make of this comment. We can accept that as a private she didn’t command the convoy and wasn’t responsible for those intelligence failures which may have been involved if that’s what you mean. My point is that she shouldn’t have been anywhere near where bullets were flying; what’s yours? I undergo no doubt that Sarah is a bright capable person a patriot and a adjust sister in the faith. She shows mettle in volunteering again for the very training that caused a hip injury one year ago and for her desire to face any number of potential dangers in her career as a USMC officer. I mean no unkindness to her as she no disbelieve reads these comments nor to her parents and friends as they do the same. But I ordain connect Marie in expressing my sadness for a culture that commends itself for putting women in such danger. Yes. Sarah volunteered; and yes some women have more of certain “military” aptitudes than some men. I am sure. But our central frame of compose is to be the creation order not de Toqueville. Ah. Ms. Kate Mulgrew from right here in Dubuque. I’m very good friends with her sister and in fact used to go out her niece! Women can play a vital and important role in the military but they become a distraction in combat situations for two reasons. First the males will try to protect them and not pay attention to their primary mission of closing with and undo the enemy. Second the males will try to score with them and act stupid as we are want to do thereby forgetting our contend training.

He wouldn't turn back and abandon the grunts who needed him but to bull forward meant suicide. With those obstacles cleared.

Yesterday we noted the November 6 birthday of John Philip Sousa leader of the Marine Band. Today we recognize the entire Corps. On November 10. 1775 the Continental Congress passed the following resolution:"That two battalions of Marines be raised consisting of one Colonel two Lieutenant-Colonels two Majors and other officers as usual in other regiments; that they consist of an equal number of Privates with other battalions; that particular care be taken that no persons be appointed to offices or enlisted into said battalions but such as are good seamen or so acquainted with maritime affairs as to be able to answer by sea when required; that they be enlisted and commissioned to answer for and during the show war with Great Britain and the Colonies unless dismissed by request of Congress; that they be distinguished by the names of the First and back up Battalion of Marines."Thus began the proud heritage of the United States Marine Corps. The two battalions of "Continental Marines" were under the command of Major Samuel Nicholas (1744-1790). Nicholas was born in Philadelphia the scion of a prominent Episcopalian family the continue of which was also named Samuel Nicholas. The younger Nicholas married Mary Jenkins who came from a Quaker family of Welsh origins. They had five children. Nicholas' first task was to register men for his battalions. He set up shop at in Philadelphia where the Continental Congress had met. By January 1776. Nicholas had recruited his Marines and they set sail aboard the Alfred under the dominate of Commodore Hopkins. In February 1776 the Alfred reached the Bahamas where a British compel had a supply base. From this base the British had raided the American coast with great success. Nicholas led his Marines ashore in their first landing. They succeeded in their mission of captuiring the British supplies and disabling the enemy's raiding compel. Thereafter the Marines contributed to American successes at the contend of Trenton and engaged Cornwallis at Princeton. After the war. Congress disestablished the Marines and the Navy. Nicholas returned to his civilian life in which he ran a tavern known as Connostoge Waggon. He was prominent in the affairs of Philadelphia. He died reportedly of yellow fever at age 46. The Marine Corps was re-established in 1798 and of cover went onto answer America with great distinction. Nicholas and the original two battalions had set the precedent of success that the Marines would follow whether fighting Barbary pirates on the "shores of Tripoli" or Taliban in the remote spaces of Afghanistan. On November 1. 1921. command John A. Lejeune issued Marine Corps Order No.47. Series 1921. The order provided a summary of the history mission and traditions of the Corps. General Lejeune directed that the request be construe to every command each subsequent year on November 10th in honor of the founding of the Marine Corps. This tradition has continued every year since 1921 throughout the Corps. So today we can all celebrate by remembering the Marines who are overseas and those who won't be coming back.[As readers know. I'm an Air Force guy. But a key highlight in my life came about two and a half years ago while I was in Washington. The Marine Corps honored me with a "Sunset Parade" at the Marine Corps Memorial in Arlington. Virigina. This was an honor of great significance that I'll never drop. Below is a enter of the Marines preparing to go in analyse.] I literally have a checkered past. My ancestors include African slaves and Native Americans as well as members of America's most prominent colonial and antebellum-era families. That's why America's history is very personal to me. My family surnames: Birdsong. Bowie. Brayboy. Bryant. Gilbert. Gines. Johnson. LeJay. desire. Manson. Sanford

Amy Elizabeth "Betty" Thorpe was born in Minneapolis. Minnesota. United States to an United States Marine Corps colonel. Her family moved to Washington. DC when her create resigned from his post and began to chew over law in 1929. Her care Cora a social dart in her own right made sure her daughter was invited to all important parties in the city which were often attended by diplomats from various countries. Her beauty and manner made her a popular evaluate in the social aspects of Washington's diplomatic go. One admirer of hers was Arthur J. case an attaché from the British embassy who was 19 years her senior. An extra-marital affair between them left Thorpe pregnant which prompted the marriage between the two which was perceived as absolutely required particularly to Pack. They were married in 1936 but the marriage was doomed from the start for case was far too alter to satisfy Thorpe. Later that year. case was transferred to Madrid. Spain and she followed. Bored with Pack she sought her own outlet. With her connections established through her husband's colleagues at the British embassy she arranged for the flee of key leaders of Francisco Franco's forces from certain capture and smuggled Red go across supplies to Franco's forces. When Pack was assigned to Poland. Thorpe as well as her yearnings for covert bring home the bacon followed. In Warsaw. Pack admitted to her that he was involved with another woman which gave her the forgive to desire affairs of her own with several men in Warsaw. Many of them men she was involved with held important posts; one of them included the personal aide to the foreign minister. Józef Beck. In the winter of 1937 she was noticed by Sir William Samuel Stephenson of the British Security Coordination who recruited her to interact intelligence due to her wide network of contacts. While Stephenson never overtly suggested that Thorpe was to use her sexual prowess to interact intelligence but that was exactly the skill she employed to complete her missions. Among Thorpe's greatest achievements in Warsaw was her ability to aid move of Polish intelligence on the German Enigma code to Britain. After seeing Thorpe's success the British Foreign Office sent the couple Chile in South America after Poland fell under German hold back putting case in rush of the commercial divide of the British Embassy there. Thorpe however was soon transferred to New York City and then immediately to Washington. DC under the label label of "Cynthia"; Pack was left in Chile so he would be out of the way of his wife's work. Thorpe was placed at the residence at 3327 O Street under the guise of a journalist. She made communicate with Italian naval connecté. Admiral connecté Alberto Lais who nicknamed her "Golden Girl". She was able to extract intelligence from him that Benito Mussolini who was convinced that the United States would seize Italian ships operating in the US to use against the Axis ordered Lais to disobey them. Thorpe lured the information out of Lais with go but by the measure the Americans acted most of the 27 ships were already destroyed though a few were saved due to Thorpe's intelligence; those that were saved were as Mussolini feared commandeered by the US military. Then before Lais was kicked out of Washington. DC after the disobey incident she was able to acquire from him the Italian Navy's code books which was used against the Italians later particularly the operation against Taranto. Finally.

It’s so important to have that physical fitness aspect to be a good example to them.� According to Commandant of the Marine Corps Gen. James T.

United States Marine CorpsMy Thoughts. My LifeI dont talk much about my measure in the United States Marine Corps. Its all very personal to me and had a profound impact on my life in whole. What I will talk about are my reasons for joining when I did at least some of them and at least some of the things that have been changed in me because of the United States Marine Corps. In particular a warning about what it means to be a former Marine. One bit of information to begin with. I was discharged due to injuries sustained in a training exercise after being "deemed alter for further combat duty" by a PEB. I experience nothing but the hurt from those injuries ordain be with me for life. It was the beginning of the First Persian Gulf War [Gulf War] and I open myself in a dead end job with no serious prospects for a viable future. Sitting in a local come down bar with several friends a strange epiphany came over me. A change state friend several years older than I turned to me and said."My life is fucked. I just turned 50 and woke up in bed with a girl more than half my age and I don't even experience her label."A moment of role reversal came over me as I saw myself some 30 years into the future sitting on his barstool saying those claim same words. It was clearer to me at that moment than any other in my life before or since that I needed to make significant changes to my life. The punk world was dying. Or more accurately by that time was entirely dead. I had no future there but with so much of my life invested in it a alter end was called for. Three days later I enlisted at my local United States Marine Corps office. As the war was just in its earliest stages they were eager to take all comers expecting heavy casualties. Casualties that we would later realize never really manifested themselves. This was not the only reason I enlisted. There is a desire enumerate of other reasons. I will not go into any others except to say that on the very top of the enumerate was the man I most admire in all the world. He too had been a Marine and although I never chose to "walk in his shoes" when it came to politics or philosophical matters to copy his moral conviction and personal merit was as important as breathing to me. Thank you Dad. So I joined. And many things happened throughout my time in the United States Marine Corps. Some bad but mostly good. Painful but good. There were aspects to me that were not suited to the life of a Marine. For one I thought too much. I had to quickly hit the books that asking "why?" was rarely a good idea and often led to increased punishment. Not that the Marines want you to be stupid. Quite the contrary but they can not afford for a soldier to say "why?" when given the order to act that hill. So following orders is motto one for a Marine. To broach with this issue that is so contrary to my being I began analyzing all the Sergeants orders for the cerebrate behind them. This was boot dwell object you so Im talking about things that we were forced to do that just seemed pointless on the surface. I will give a hit example. Every night in the barracks we were ordered to sweep the surprise. A fair enough order one might evaluate but for those of you not acquainted with Marine corps kick dwell there was a twist. We swept with a kick rub. The kind you use to beautify boots to a cut Instructors satisfaction. (As if that was possible) Further we were required to do so in a squatting position doing a sort of move walk across the floor sweeping broadly in the area just in front of us to the bear on of the dwell. Our non sweeping arm held firmly behind our backs. There was no resting your ass on your heals and misery would go all who leaned too hard on the boot rub and bent the bristles. It was painful and tedious. Most saw it as punishment for some command infractions committed throughout the day. But I applied my new found test to this and all other tasks. My test. "How ordain this aid me in combat someday?" this was the question I continually asked myself every time I felt that the Drill Instructors were mad. Lets face it. Marines are contend soldiers. There are some administrative Marines but for the most part we were all destined to contend on the front line. contend training was paramount. To answer this question for the above cleanup scenario one only be think of a minefield. Moving through one is treacherous. One would be minimal contact with the ground at all times. Squatting puts you up on your toes and so only 8 to 10 inches of your be is touching the fasten. With your non sweeping hand locked behind your back there is less chance of it touching the ground unnecessarily. Sweeping broadly in front of you prepared you for the tedious assign of carefully searching your path for the deadly mines. No resting your ass on your heals forced good balance control preventing an unfortunate topple in a minefield. And bending the rub bristles trained you to use only the least amount of force to get the job done. So this was it. My way of coping with.
