No matter where Marines are serving, from the Pentagon and Marine Barracks in Washington, to the loneliest outposts in Iraq and Afghanistan, Marines will stop, shake hands, say happy birthday, sing the Marines' Hymn and, if it is available, have a piece of cake.

Tet 68 in Phu Bai,
by the rockets red glare...
Tet 68 in Phu Bai,
by the 122mm. rockets red glare...
Tet68 in Chu Lai,
the 81mm mortar bombs bursting in air,
gave proof through the night
that the Marines were still there...
Ooooorah!
Happy Birthday my Brothers.
I sure hope the young Marines of today know
how much pride WE have in them upholding the
best traditions of the Corps.
Another chapter in our proud history!
Semper Fi!
