Pins fuel for me a passion for Marine Corps history connected to their distinguished heritage. These pins tie us back to our history, to the people who came before us, to all of the giants and to all of the little people ... who make the Corps work day-to-day. That's really what  these pins represents.  It's about the US Marines...from the Private to the Four Star General, it is the only service where everyone is called "A Marine"..... it's about people & their airplanes/equipment that make the Corps what it is! 

 
"The raising of that Flag on Suribachi means a Marine Corps for the next 500 years!" (James Forrestal, Secretary of the Navy, 23 February 1945)

"Land of the free ... because of the brave!"

"My faith sustains me because I pray daily. I pray for guidance and wisdom and strength....One thing that's really great about our country, is there are thousands of people who pray for me that I'll never see and be able to thank. But it's a humbling experience to think that people I will never have met have lifted me and my family up in prayer. And for that I'm grateful.

--President George W Bush

United States Marine Corps 1978-88 Honorable Discharge

As I was making 101st Airborne Tags yesterday, I thought about a little girl I met who left a lasting smile on me....

The Apple does not fall far from the Tree....

While I was working the airshow at Salinas Ca, one of the many of my ebay customers came to visit....as we were talking this young girl , about 13 walked up to the booth and asked if we had anything for the 101st Airborne Division. I told her we had a hat, pin, patch, dog tag, coin, sticker and a flag....and gave her the price of each, and asked which one she wanted.... She then held her head down as she said she said she only had $2.

It was very unusual for a young girl to ask for a specific unit like this and I asked who she came with & who this was for....she said she was by herself, and she wanted to get something for her Grandfather who was in the 101st at Normandy. She was a little sad and that's not what we're about.....

I then went & picked out a 101st hat, pin, coin, sticker, patch & my Marine humor business card and told her to give it to her Grandfather and tell him it’s from a grateful Nation and Marine. I then gave her a 101st Airborne Dog Tag & told her this was for her for being such a thoughtful Granddaughter. She said Thank you and took off....

The Ebay customer (you know who you are) said hey Vic you did not have to do that and that was very nice of you...please let me pay for that...you should not have to lose money....

I told him thank you for the offer, but Jesus paid for my life & this man was one of many who paid for my freedom....I think the price has been paid...don't you? He shook his head in agreement, and said he was going to go look at some of the static display & would be back....

About two hours later he came back and we were talking and the little girl showed up again.....she had a precious smile on her face & then said she went home and gave the items to her Grandfather... she said, with the look of a proud messenger that her Grandfather was crying and told me to go back and personally thank you.....he said he didn't think anybody cared & how much did he owe! I told the little girl, it was a gift from the Lord (as the Bible says that it is the Lord who blesses the hands of the worker) & a grateful Marine! I then told her God bless you & tell your Grandfather that he's a Great American and so are you for being such a caring Granddaughter....she then gave a big smile & said she would and turned and skipped off....

I looked at my Ebay friend, whose eye was tearing up, as was mine... and I told him....WOW what do you think... did that little girl learned & demonstrate the same duty, honor & courage as her Grandfather? He shook his head in the affirmative, as two old Vets just chocked up....

The Apple does not fall far from the tree....Priceless.....

LETTER FROM BOOT CAMP....

Dear Ma and Pa,

I am well. Hope you are. Tell Brother Walt and Brother Elmer the Marine Corps beats working for old man Minch by a mile. Tell them to join up quick before all of the places are filled. I was restless at first because you got to stay in bed till nearly 6 a.m. but I am getting so I like to sleep late. Tell Walt and Elmer all you do before breakfast is smooth your cot, and shine some things. No hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to mix, wood to split, fire to lay. Practically nothing. We all have to shave but it is not so bad, there's warm water & no out house!   Breakfast is strong on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, fruit,etc., but kind of weak on chops, potatoes, ham, steak, fried eggplant, pie and other regular food. Tell Walt and Elmer you can always sit by the two city boys that live on coffee. Their food plus yours holds you until noon when you get fed again. It's no wonder these city boys can't walk much. We go on "route marches," which the platoon sergeant says are long walks to harden us. If he thinks so, it's not my place to tell him different. A "route march" is about as far as to our mailbox at home. Then the city guys get sore feet and we all ride back in trucks. The country is nice but awful flat. The sergeant is like a school teacher. He nags a lot. The Captain is like the school board. Majors and colonels just ride around and frown. They don't bother you none. This next one will kill Walt and Elmer with laughter... I keep getting medals for shooting & I don't know why. The bulls-eye is near as big as a chipmunk's head and don't move, and it ain't shooting at you like the Higgett boys at home. All you got to do is lie there all comfortable and hit it. You don't even load your own cartridges. They come in boxes. Then we have what they call hand-to-hand combat training. You get to wrestle with them city boys. I have to be real careful though, they break real easy. It ain't like fighting with that ole bull at home. I'm about the best they got in this except for that Tug Jordan from over in Silver Lake. I only beat him once. He joined up the same time as me, but I'm only 5'6" and 130 pounds and he's 6'8" and near 300 pounds dry. Be sure to tell Walt and Elmer to hurry and join before other fellers get onto this setup and come stampeding in.

Your loving daughter, Stephanie Marie

Cemetery Escort Duty WARNING....DO NOT READ.....YOUR MONITOR WILL TEAR UP! I just wanted to get the day over with and go down to Smokey's. Sneaking a look at my watch, I saw the time, 1655. Five minutes to go before the cemetery gates are closed for the day. Full dress was hot in the August sun.  Oklahoma summertime was as bad as ever--the heat and humidity at the same level--both too high.  I saw the car pull into the drive, '69 or '70 model Cadillac Deville , looked factory-new. It pulled into the parking lot at a snail's pace. An old woman got out so slow I thought she was paralyzed; she had a cane and a sheaf of flowers--about four or five bunches as best I could tell.  I couldn't help myself. The thought came unwanted, and left a slightly bitter taste: 'She's going to spend an hour, and for this old Marine, my hip hurts like hell and I'm ready to get out of here right now!' But for this day, my duty was to assist anyone coming in.  Kevin would lock the 'In' gate and if I could hurry the old biddy along, we might make it to Smokey's in time.  I broke post attention. My hip made gritty noises when I took the first step and the pain went up a notch.  I must have made a real military sight: middle-aged man with a small pot gut and half a limp, in Marine full-dress uniform, which had lost its razor crease about thirty minutes after I began the watch at the cemetery.  I stopped in front of her, halfway up the walk. She looked up at me with an old woman's squint.
' Ma'am,may I assist you in any way? '  She took long enough to answer.  ' Yes, son. Can you carry these flowers? I seem to be moving a tad slow these days. ' 'My pleasure, ma'am. ' Well, it wasn't too much of a lie.  She looked again. ' Marine, where were you stationed? '  '  Vietnam , ma'am. Ground-pounder. '69 to '71. '  She looked at me closer. ' Wounded in action , I see. Well done, Marine. I'll be as quick as I can. '  I lied a little bigger: ' No hurry, ma'am.'  She smiled and winked at me. ' Son, I'm 85-years-old and I can tell a lie from a long way off. Let's get this done. Might be the last time I can do this. My name's Joanne Wieserman, and I've a few Marines I'd like to see one more time. '  ' Yes, ma 'am. At your service. '
She headed for the World War I section, stopping at a stone. She picked one of the flowers out of my arm and laid it on top of the stone. She murmured something I couldn't quite make out. The name on the marble was  Donald S. Davidson, USMC : France 1918 .  She turned away and made a straight line for the World War II section, stopping at one stone. I saw a tear slowly tracking its way down her cheek. She put a bunch on a stone; the name was  Stephen X.Davidson, USMC, 1943 .  She went up the row a ways and laid another bunch on a stone,  Stanley J. Wieserman, USMC, 1944 .  She paused for a second. ' Two more, son, and we'll be done '  I almost didn't say anything, but, ' Yes, ma'am. Take your time.'  She looked confused. ' Where's the Vietnam section, son? I seem to have lost my way. '  I pointed with my chin. ' That way, ma'am.'  'Oh!' she chuckled quietly. ' Son, me and old age ain't too friendly. '  She headed down the walk I'd pointed at. She stopped at a couple of stones before she found the ones she wanted. She placed a bunch on  Larry Wieserman, USMC, 1968 , and the last on  Darrel Wieserman, USMC, 1970 . She stood there and murmured a few words I still couldn't make out.  ' OK, son, I'm finished. Get me back to my car and you can go home. ' 
Yes, ma'am. If I may ask, were those your kinfolk? '  She paused. ' Yes,   Donald Davidson was my father,   Stephen was my uncle,   Stanley was my husband,  Larry and   Darrel were our sons. All killed in action, all Marines. '
She stopped. Whether she had finished, or couldn't finish, I don't know. She made her way to her car, slowly and painfully.  I waited for a polite distance to come between us and then double-timed it over to Kevin, waiting by the car.  ' Get to the 'Out' gate quick. I have something I've got to do. '  Kevin started to say something, but saw the look I gave him. He broke the rules to get us there down the service road. We beat her. She hadn't made it around the rotunda yet.
'Kevin, stand at attention next to the gatepost. Follow my lead. ' I humped it across the drive to the other post.  When the Cadillac came puttering around from the hedges and began the short straight traverse to the gate, I called in my best Gunny's voice: ' TehenHut! Present Haaaarms!'  I have to hand it to Kevin; he never blinked an eye--full dress uniform standing at attention and a salute that would make his DI proud. She drove through that gate with two old worn-out Marines giving her a send-off she deserved, for service rendered to her country, and for knowing duty, honor and sacrifice.  I am not sure, but I think I saw a salute returned from that Cadillac. Instead of ' The End ,'...just think of ' Taps. '  As a final thought on my part, let me share a favorite prayer: ' Lord, keep our servicemen and women safe, whether they serve at home or overseas. Hold them in your loving hands and protect them as they protect us. '  Let's all keep those currently serving and those who have gone before in our thoughts. They are the reason for the many freedoms we enjoy.  'In God We Trust .' Sorry about your monitor; it made mine blurry too!  "If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under!"

Every now and then, in the middle of the constant barrage of trash that’s just lighting us all up these days, we come across a story, a feat, an event that just makes us stop in our tracks. This was one for me.... Cody Green was a 12-year kid in Indiana who was diagnosed with leukemia at 22 months old. He loved the Marines, and his parents said he drew strength and courage from the Marine Corps. as ...he bravely fought the battle into remission three times. Although he was cancer-free at the time, the chemotherapy had lowered his immune system and he developed a fungus infection that attacked his brain. Two weeks ago, as he struggled to fend off that infection in the hospital, the Marines wanted to show how much they respected his will to live, his strength, honor and courage. They presented Cody with Marine navigator wings and named him an honorary member of the United States Marine Corps. For one Marine, that wasn’t enough ... so that night, before Cody Green passed away, he took it upon himself to stand guard at Cody’s hospital door all night long, eight hours straight. Nowhere on the face of this planet is there a country so blessed as we to have men and women such as this. I wish I could personally tell this Marine how proud he makes me to be a MARINE!

God... I do so love this country.
