I'm a proud grandma of a new Marine.  He's at Paris Island right now in boot camp.  He will graduate in December just before Christmas.

The Few the Proud. The Marines.

 

I miss hearing my husband sing "From the Halls of Montezuma" even though I would think to myself "not again" lol.

 

He was so proud to be a Marine.
