    Hoorah!
    I was going to the blog to post the exact same message but my Flyboy father beat me to it. Good on you pops!

    I made sure to buy some camo high life cans to toast the occasion with my wife.

    Semper Fidelis devil dogs.

    That picture of dean makes me laugh everytime. It perfectly illustrates his entire career as a marine.

    I feel like all of us here can appreciate this. I think I had the Shakira debate...

    That is the most realistic military action game I've ever seen. But, they need to do one focused on the Air Force, then you'd see real military action: Instead of sitting around cleaning weapons, you'd be playing volleyball!

    Funny ass video. Dean and I can truly appreciate it. One time Goekler and I spent an entire day looking for bullets on the ground. We emptied all of them and had a bag of gun powder. Goekler used it to torch a lizard.

    That Onion website is hilarious. I can't believe I've never watched it before.

    ToeJamm, your pic sums up you Career as a Marine too.

    Melkor, the video was funny. Do you really do that stuff in the game? I would add sweeping sand off of the road and doing chow runs and playing musical iso containers.

    A more serious video would be this video. http://hotair.com/archives/2009/11/10/happy-birthday-marine-corps/

    Thats right. My m-16 is strictly for looks. I obviously was in no danger in that picture with no flak or kevlar. Strictly Bad Ass.

    A better answer would be, "I chamber each round myself...so I can touch each bullet that kills the enemies of freedom"

    One shot one kill OORAH!

    First time that I left the base in Iraq, I racked my gun and the round got jammed in the chamber. Dirty weapon. lol

    Sssssh! Ahem! Let me translate this into Badass, " First time I went on my one man patrol along the Syrian border, a dust storm that grounded all aircraft, even satellites, hit our position. The enemy thought they could use the cover of the sandstorm to attack me. But when I tried to shoot them, the sand was so severe that it immediately jammed my weapon. So I fixed bayonets and killed them in hand to hand combat. Unfortunately the sand storm erased all evidence of the 20 or so terrorists that I killed....I also saved a village in the process."

    One major fronting American badass! As for me, I like to keep it real, maybe a little to real on the skating side.

    Its ok Dean. You were with Marines like me who covered your six 24/7. I protected my brothers in order that they have the liberty to be skaters during war.

    I'm glad someone got to skate in Iraq...I was too busy watching Conan the Barbarian to be unproductive

    Even skating sucks when you're in Iraq.
