Esprit' de Corps

stitch · 07-08-2009, 09:34 PM

I was reminded of something today … Esprit’ de Corps, and None left behind.
We here are all bound as “Brothers of the Leaf” … And that bond is tight.
Over the years I have seen many acts of selflessness among the brothers, Most done quietly and without fanfare.
Mass bombings of those going through tough times, Monetary help quietly given.
I know of one member who quietly spent over $400. one year just to make sure the troops overseas got a hellashious Christmas bombing.
Some of us are bound by even deeper things, Faith, Being Masons or such … And those of us who are or were Marines.
Esprit’ de Corps and None left behind, … Those are more than words to a Marine, They are a Credo of life. … We carry them to our graves.
So my Brothers, Remember .. No matter what, We are here for each other.
And to my Brothers of the Eagle, Globe and Anchor … Never Forget
Esprit’ de Corps.
If you need us, We are here, Now … And always.
Semper Fi to my Marine Brothers.
To my BTOL’S … Thank you … And we are All here for each other.
Let us never forget that.
