U.S.M.C. (U Suckers Missed Christmas)
And I've always been a huge fan of Full Metal Jacket, so...
"Are you quitting on me? Well, are you? Then quit, you slimy ******** walrus-looking piece of s**t. Get the ******** off of my obstacle! Get the ******** down off of my obstacle!! Now, move it! I'm going to rip your balls off, so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world! I will motivate you, Private Pyle, if it short-dicks every cannibal on the Congo!"

Quotes about Marines
Some people live an entire lifetime and wonder if they have ever made a difference in the world, but the Marines don't have that problem.
Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America
I have just returned from visiting the Marines at the front, and there is not a finer fighting organization in the world!
General Douglas MacArthur, US Army
The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other b*****d die for his.
General George Patton, US Army
The battle of Iwo Jima has been won. Among the Americans who served on Iwo, uncommon valor was a common virtue.
Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, USN
The man who will go where his colors will go, without asking, who will fight a phantom foe in a jungle and mountain range, without counting, and who will suffer and die in the midst of incredible hardship, without complaint, is still what he has always been, from Imperial Rome to sceptered Britain to Democratic America. He is the stuff of which legions are made. His pride is his colors and his regiment, his training hard and thorough and coldly realistic, to fit him for what he must face, and his obedience is to his orders. As a legionary, he held the gates of civilization for the classical world...he has been called United States Marine.
Lieutenant Colonel T.R. Fehrenbach, US Army in "This Kind of War"
Marines are about the most peculiar breed of human beings I have ever witnessed. They treat their service as if it was some kind of cult, plastering their emblem on almost everything they own, making themselves up to look like insane fanatics with haircuts to ungentlemanly lengths, worshipping their Commandant almost as if he was a god, and making weird animal noises like a band of savages. They'll fight like rabid dogs at the drop of a hat just for the sake of a little action, and are the cockiest SOB's I have ever known. Most have the foulest mouths and drink well beyond man's normal limits, but their high spirits and sense of brotherhood set them apart and , generally speaking, of the United States Marines I've come in contact with, are the most professional soldiers and the finest men I have had the pleasure to meet.
An Anonymous Canadian Citizen
Old breed? New breed? There's not a damn bit of difference so long as it's the Marine breed.
Lieutenant General Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller, USMC
People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
George Orwell
The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle!
General Pershing, US Army
The more Marines I have around the better I like it!
General Mark Clark, US Army
You don't hurt 'em if you don't hit 'em.
Lieutenant General Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller, USMC
Being ready is not what matters. What matters is winning after you get there.
Lieutenant General Victor H. Krulak, USMC
I still need Marines who can shoot and salute. But I need Marines who can fix jet engines and man sophisticated radar sets, as well.
General Robert E. Cushman, Jr., USMC
Come on you bastards, do you want to live forever?
Gunnery Sergeant Dan Daly, USMC
To ERR is human, to FORGIVE divine. HOWEVER, neither is Marine Corps Policy.
Unknown
The Marines have landed, and the situation is well in hand.
Richard Harding Davis, war correspondent (1885)
This will be the bloodiest fight in Marine Corps history. We'll catch seven kinds of hell on the beaches, and that will be just the beginning. The fighting will be fierce, and the casualties will be awful, but my Marines will take the damned island. (concerning the upcoming attack on Iwo Jima)
Lieutenant General Holland M. "Howlin' Mad" Smith, USMC
Victory was never in doubt. Its cost was...What was in doubt, in all our minds, was whether there would be any of us left to dedicate our cemetery at the end, or whether the last Marine would die knocking out the last Japanese gun and gunner. (In reference to the Battle of Iwo Jima)
Major General Graves B. Erskine, USMC
The raising of that flag means a Marine Corps for the next five hundred years. (concerning the flag raising at Mt. Suribachi)
James Forrestal, Secretary of the Navy
A ship without Marines is like a garment without buttons.
Admiral David Porter, USN
Casualties many; Percentage of dead not known; Combat efficiency: we are winning!
Colonel David M. Shoup, USMC
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 different direction!
General Oliver Smith, USMC
We have two companies of Marines running all over this island and thousands of Army troops doing nothing!
General John Vessey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
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!
Major General Frank Lowe, US Army
Panic sweeps my men when they are facing the American Marines.
A captured North Korean Major

"The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war." -Douglas MacArthur
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
"Citizenship in a Republic,"
Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910
Rest easy, sleep well my brothers.
Know the line has held, your job is done.
Rest easy, sleep well...
"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -George Orwell
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
1. Jesus Christ
2. The American G. I.
One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
