The Marines few good men…The Navy Corpsman. We always took care of doc.

I served for twelve years in the Corps. I was an 0331 in Viet Nam and finished up as a SSgt (8411) when I got out. Whenever someone thanks me for my service, I always reply, "It was an honor." because for me, it was. I know many veterans who are filled with regret that they didn't serve their twenty years and retire. I am filled with pride at the single greatest accomplishment of my life, having earned the title.

My Step Father was a WWII Marine. Joined the Corps in 1940. He would never talk of his experience until one night we were watching the movie Sands of Iwo Jima. It showed actual combat footage of the invasion of Tarawa. Then he began to tell me his experience on Tarawa. He was on the USS Saratoga on Dec 7th. They pulled into Pearl on Dec 15th; the fires were still smoldering. His back was broken while aboard the USS Saratoga. He was walking through a hatchway when a Japanese torpedo hit. He was thrown in the air and landed on his back, halfway through the hatch. All the male members of my family have served; two Marines, two Air Force, two Army, one Navy. I thank you all for your service.

My personal favorite is Art Buchwald. He tells the story of himself as an ordinance man. He dropped a live bomb in a hangar, but because he failed to arm it properly, it didn't detonate. His commanding officer told him he wasn't sure whether he should court martial him for his stupidity of dropping the bomb or commending him for his incompetence at improperly arming it.

+Robert Dore I respectfully disagree. A Marine's proper resting place is wherever the f*** he feels like. I worked with a very dear friend who was in the Army, but had fallen on hard times, and was homeless, driving a cab. When he passed, my co-worker, who knew him very well, asked me what she needed to do to get him a proper burial in a Veteran's Cemetery. I told her what to do, she did the legwork. At his funeral, all of the office workers went to his funeral, and I guided my friend on what was happening, and when to give me everything she was holding on to. When she asked if I was going to do the same, I informed her I would be buried with my parents. My father is a Marine, and he's in a civilian cemetery with my mother. I'll be joining him there. So, a Marine's proper resting place is wherever the f*** he feels like, just as are most things with Marines - wherever the f*** we feel like. Where does a Marine call home? Wherever the f*** he feels like calling home. Or, as AFT Marine would say, "If I'm standing on it, it's America!"

My Uncle Troy, a staunch Marine of WWll, served full time in the Korean War in the coldest weather ever. He then served in Vietnam as an aircraft mechanic for 18 months. By then, he was nine weeks from retirement. Again he returned to Vietnam for another 9 months because there was a shortage of helicopter mechanics! 10 months later he was fortunate to return to us. He retired to the California desert, humble and rarely spoke of his service. He reasoned that he never wanted to see a winter as cold as Korea and he did not like the jungles anymore. He earned many medals. He was a hero in Korea. Many wrote of his bravery and dedication to young Marines. I only knew this because of the "Stars and Stripes" newspaper. To me, he was my favorite Uncle because he woke up early with us kids. He taught us how to make breakfast out of nothing. He called it "Montana Gravy" on a "shingle" ( ie., toast) We enjoyed "picnics" for lunch as we camped out. Truly, he loved America and he inspired greatness in all of us. His son retired as a Naval Commander. His grandson is flying "Hornets" now, based out of Rhode Island. Uncle Troy loved his family and the Marines. He chewed on an unlit cigar as long as I can remember. Even in retirement, Marines from all over came to have that 5am cup of coffee with him. I dearly miss the twinkle in his eyes and the lessons about loving family. May God bless him and our young Marines! Hoorah!

I had to smile at Tyrone Powers. He drilled regularly with a Marine Reserve unit, as a Major. When his unit shipped out, he found out and found transportation to intercept them. When his Hollywood associates wanted him on set, he was missing. After a huge hue and cry, he got tracked down. In a rare situation, he got threatened with court-martial if he did not leave the combat zone and return to the 48 to do publicity work. He was angry, but he went. Piece of trivia: he was one of the two best swordsmen in Hollywood, and therefore, one of the few Marine Officers able to use his sword in combat, if need be.

@@PabloFlores : I had always love Maj Power! He was a great man, a good soldier and a great actor, too. Thank you very, very much!

As a Former Marine myself from 1986-1990. I had no clue about a lot of these people being Marines.....Bea Arthur was the shocker to me!!

Thank you one and all for your service to keep the world free

THANK YOU , UNITED STATES MARINE CORP. 🇺🇸

An important one you missed was Joe Foss, Medal of Honor winner, and former Governor of South Dakota and the first commissioner of the American Football Conference.

He also should have been the Corps' Ace of Aces, as four of Gregory Boyington's total were planes he shot down when he was a Flying Tiger, for which he had to resign from the Corps, he was just a private individual.

Never would have guessed Burt Young (the chubby sidekick from Rocky). Maude was a surprise when I first heard it a few years ago.

not to mention he was also kinda a action hero in The Killer Elite and Twilights last Glimming.

Good clip. Some of the guys I had no idea they were Marines. Enjoyed this very much.

Well Done ! USMC '71-'75

Bob Keeshan never saw combat. He got in the Corps too late to get sent overseas.

found out about captain kangaroo from Lee Marvin on a late night talk show years ago. they were making a big to ,do about the fact that he was in a war zone in WWII. he just shrugged and said that there was another Marine on that beach that day . he was a Sargent standing up yelling at the men pinned down on the beach while bullets whizzed all around him. well his pep talk got those boys off the beach just in time for the next wave in to have a place to disembark and he said we would know this man as Captain kangaroo. also he mentioned another soldier that he had heard rumors about people down talking the man from the mister rogers show.. Mr. Marvin then went on to day that the reason Mr. rogers always wore long sleeves was to hide all of his tattoo's. he had been through 3 tours in Viet n Nam and a lot of that was behind enemy lines

Before he was Captain Kangaroo, Bob Keeshan was Clarabelle the Clown on the Howdy Doody Show.

RIP R Lee Ermey, you will always me missed! Semper Fi...

Before there was R. Lee Ermey, Capt. Dale Dye was the go-to military consultant on dozens of films, though he mainly acts now.

Great clip for Marine Corps history. Semper Fi and well done.

Brian Dennehy, Gene Hackman, Scott Glenn. That is awesome. Great video.

Dennehy never made it further than Okinawa. He was born in 1938 so there's not much of a chance that he served in Korea.

J. K. Sort of shamed himself? Actor Brian Dennehy claimed for years that he served a five-year tour as a Marine in Vietnam, where he was wounded in action. In reality, Dennehy's only Vietnam "action" was on-screen in "A Rumor of War", in which he portrayed a Marine gunnery sergeant. While Dennehy did serve in the Marines, it was not in Vietnam; his only "combat duty" was playing football in Okinawa in 1962.

I'm a Marine Semper Fi. Great video series.

Thank you for your service... and for the laughs, entertainment, news, music, and everything else.

Thanks for the video clip Pablo! Semper Fi... Uh Rah!

There seems to be some who cannot understand: "Once a Marine always a Marine." I did not serve. I graduated from U.C.L.A., a Bruin. I earned my diploma. Once a Bruin, always a Bruin. My grandson is a Marine. He earned it. So once a Marine always a Marine. I am so proud of him.
