Excellent show. My son is currently deployed in Afghanistan, and I cried through the whole show.

Thanks for the ping. I hope I can get the channel on my basement TV. That is if I can stay awake. Must have pulled more then a quarter ton of 100 and 200 AMP service wire off huge spools to sell Home Depot customers between 6AM to 7AM. I opened the store at 5AM. Body gets shot after days like this.
I gotta find a get rich scheme where I can make twenty billion US dollars in one day. Heheh.

I just recall that when I was going through OCS there was a football team and then later when stationed there in the late 70s as a Capt there was still a football team of sorts.
The show was great and I was hoping there was an address where we could send for a copy of the program. I would love to have a couple of them, one to send to my brother who once said I am "judgemental". He does not understand the Marine ethos and this might point it out.

As a Maryland boy I welcome you to come see a game at Navy/Marine Corp Stadium this year.

Since it was on PBS, I thought it would be crap.
It was outstanding!
To: Marine Inspector
PBS has some good stuff sometimes. It's not all liberal garbage.
I want to see a definitive documentary on Smedley Butler.
I would just have to do push-ups the whole time on that one.
Bottom line, I found with today's media, get your info from many sources, and think for yourself.
Too much stuff out there that is like borderline mind control, where the programming is geared to get you to think in a certain way. I see it on Super Left & Super Right programming. (maybe thats why it's called programming...YIKES!)
