I only have one real birthday and thats Nov 10th. Although ive been out of the Marines since Aug 2000 and have been in the Army since Nov 2000 (Yeah I know but the Army got me out of being a grunt with a high tech MOS that the Corps did not offer, plus promotion is faster) I still defend my Corps.
If you think being in the Marines is hard try being a Marine in the Army. Twice as much flack from both sides. But ive trained my Soldiers to Corps standards, or at least try. Now im the new First Sgt. "E-8" at my unit and im only a SSGT. "E-6".
I served with the Marines in Iraq when I was in the Army and proudly wear my (authorized) 1st Mar Div Combat patch.
