Re: Happy 236th Birthday Marines!
Semper Fi Marines from an Ex Swabi. This day always brings back memories of the best ship's party we ever had. My Tin Can was commissioned on Nov 12, 1968 and we had a big party for the off duty crew in Gitmo. It happened to take place in the same EM club where The Marines were having a party to celebrate the anniversary of the corps, They ran out of alcohol and we ran out of mixer, so we combined the parties and had a great time, two groups of America's great military taking some time out together during the Viet Nam war
"A day spent in the fields and woods, or on the water should not count as a day off our allotted number upon this earth."

Whenever I visit the Marine Corps Museum at Quantico every few months to check out the latest exhibits, I almost always have a pint in the "recreated" Tun Tavern. The food isn't all that bad either. Also, take a close look at the painting on the wall - if you don't recognize some of the faces the bartender can help you out.
Happy Birthday and Semper Fi!
