Found these on a friends Facebook page, they are pretty beastly and true!
“The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle” General Pershing, US Army
“So they’ve got us surrounded. Good. That simplifies the problem! Now we can fire in any direction, those bastards won’t get away this time!” Chesty Puller, USMC.
“The more Marines I have around the better I like it!” General Mark Clark, US Army.
“Sometimes it is entirely appropriate to kill a fly with a sledge-hammer!” Major Holdredge
“I can never again see a United States Marine without experiencing a feeling of reverence.” General Johnson, US Army.
“We’re not retreating, Hell! We’re just attacking in a different direction!” General Oliver Smith, USMC
Retreat hell! We just got here!” Captain Lloyd Williams, USMC.
“The safest place in Korea was right behind a platoon of Marines. Lord, how they could fight!”
“Panic sweeps my men when they are facing the American Marines.” Captured North Korean Major.
“THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS… is over 225 years of romping, stomping, hell, death and destruction. The finest fighting machine the world has ever seen. We were born in a Bomb Crater, Our Mother was an M-16 & Our Father was the Devil. Each moment that I live is an additional threat upon your life. I am a rough looking, roving soldier of the sea. I am cocky, self-centered, overbearing, and do not know the meaning of fear, for I am fear itself. I am a green amphibious monster, made of blood and guts, who arose from the sea, feasting on anti-Americans throughout the globe. Whenever it may arise, and when my time comes, I will die a glorious death on the battlefield, giving my life for Mom, the Corps, and the American Flag. We stole the eagle from the Air Force, the anchor from the Navy, and the rope from the Army. On the 7th day, while God rested, we over-ran his perimeter and stole the globe, and we’ve been running the show ever since. We live like soldiers and talk like sailors and slap the Hell out of both of them. Marine by day, lover by night, drunkard by choice, MARINE BY GOD!!! OORAH!!!”
