Strength through adversity. The strongest steel is forged by the fires of hell. It is pounded and struck repeatedly before it’s plunged back into the molten fire. The fire gives it power and flexibility, and the blows give it strength. Those two things make the metal pliable and able to withstand every battle it’s called upon to fight. That's why Marine Corps Recruit Depot is the way it is.

"Sheep, wolves, and sheepdogs." The sheep go through life refusing to see evil. The wolves are the evil preying on the sheep. But the sheepdogs? They protect the sheep. They fight the evil.

It takes men of GREAT character to walk in our shoes... to find the spirit that our great ancestral once held marching for days to find peace. When will you step up and be the David the world needs!

Are you applying for scholarships? Well the NROTC Scholarship deadline is around the corner. October 6th to be exact!! Just by applying doesn't mean you are committed to the Marine Corps! Here's a couple of scenarios: (1) you apply and you don't win AND you go on to college on your own dime never committing to the Marine Corps (2) You apply. Win the scholarship and you DONT accept the money. you do what you want to do with your future. Never committing anything to the Marine Corps. (3) You apply and win. You go to college on the scholarship and when you receive your bachelors in whatever you want to major in you then become a Marine a Corps officer for 4 years. (4) win the scholarship, go to college and drop out? As long as you don't go past your freshman year you don't owe anything!! With all that being said, why would you close the door on an option?

Marine Arrogance

A Marine Sergeant wrote this in response to an army guy who posted a comment on a Marine Corps site that he was sick and tired of "Marine Arrogance."

The Sergeant said...

"I think that's what makes Marines special, if only in our own minds, is that elusive Quality of Esprit de Corps. It's the fact that we, as individual Marines, don't feel that we are individual Marines. When we wear our uniform, when we hear our Hymn, when we go into battle, we are going with every other Marine who ever wore the uniform.

Standing behind us are the Marines who fought during the birth of our nation. We're standing with the Marines who fought in WWI and gave birth to the legend of the "Teuful Hunden," or "Devil Dogs." We are standing with the Marines who took Iwo and Tarawa and countless other blood soaked islands throughout the Pacific.

We are standing with the "Frozen Chosin" and our beloved Chesty Puller. We are standing with the Marines who battled at Hue City and Khe Sanh and the muddy rice paddies of South East Asia. We are standing with the Marines who fought in Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom and now are fighting in Afghanistan.

Like real brothers, their blood courses through our veins, and when we go into battle, we would rather lay down our lives than be a disappointment to them. We carry on our backs their legacy, their deaths, and their honor. We carry that for the rest of our lives.

The Marine Corps uniform doesn't come off when our active duty is over. We wear it daily in our attitude and our love of Corps and country. We wear it on our tattoos and our bumper stickers. We wear it on our hearts.

It's why, no matter where we are in the world, on November 10th, every Marine celebrates the Marine Corps birthday. It's why we'll never be an army of 1. It's why we never stop being Marines. It's why, for most of us, being a Marine isn't something we were. It's something we are.

It's the most important part of who and what we are. Some say we're arrogant. We say we're proud. We have a right to be proud. We are the United States Marines, the most feared and ferocious group of warriors to walk the face of this earth.

When America's enemies formulate their battle plans, they plan on going around Marine units because they know Damn well that they can't go through them. We are what other branches wish they were.

We are the modern day Spartans. This isn't bragging. It's written in the battle history of our country. When there's a parade and the Marines march by, everyone pays a little more attention. Some say, "arrogance." We call it "pride." It's why, in a crowd of servicemen, you can always spot the Marine. Why are Marines special? I don't know. We just are.

Saepius Exertus, Semper Fidelis, Frater Infinitas, Often Tested, Always Faithful, Brothers Forever,

-Semper Fidelis!

Courage, endurance and integrity are traits shared by all Marines, regardless of gender. The strenuous trials of Marine Corps Recruit Training show no discrimination. For more than 60 years, females in the Marine Corps have shown their mettle and met the challenges in front of them. Your path is rigorous. Your determination must be unflinching. Your reward will be to stand should to shoulder with the finest and say, "I am a Marine." Southwest Marines
