John "Black Jack" Pershing "Once a Marine, always a Marine!"-MSgt Paul Woyshner "The MARINES have landed and have the situation well in hand!"-RICHARD HARDING DAVIS "Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem." "WARRIORS BY DAY, LOVERS BY NIGHT, PROFESSIONALS BY CHOICE, AND MARINES BY THE GRACE OF GOD" "To observe a Marine, is inspirational. To be a Marine, is exceptional."-GySgt Charles F. Wolf, Jr. "The Marines are careful, brave fighters...they were like hunters, boring in relentlessly without fear. I never heard a wounded Marine moan." "Even when your dead and six feet deep you'll still be buried in your dress blues"-Drill Instructor Sgt. Mendoza"
