Happy 250th Birthday to the United States Marine Corps.
My own path to the Corps started with my father's service. My earliest blueprint for discipline and strength was forged by looking at his old uniform, worn photos, and listening to his stories—a powerful legacy that made the Corps my inevitable future.
Earning the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor is the ultimate Rite of Passage; it is a rigorous process of stripping away the old soft ways of civilian life and forging the Corps.' values of Honor, Courage, Commitment, discipline, and mental toughness—a process that ultimately taught me the true value of that internal transformation.
We honor those who came before and those who come after us.
To all my brothers and sisters: Thank you for your service and for upholding the legacy of disciplined ex*****on. Semper Fidelis.
