Marines,
Army stands for war, thinking that one never wants to stay close to soldiers, but armies also stand for defense that that’s what makes the civilians love soldiers.
Ask yourselves,
What is it that soldiers protect? The right to spend the way of life you love, the right to vote, the right to have voices, the right of public to live a civil life, the right of people to be at the top of themselves serving the country, the right liberals or conservatives out of their choice, and no doubt, more importantly, the right to breath in a free country.
Think about it,
When soldiers temper your votes, press your voices and choices is not the kind of marines that you want to become. That’s never gonna happen in America. And then who are soldiers? Those righting with guns only or also those fighting with a pen? Everyone wears a uniform, but the oath of truth does not exist in all countries uniformly.
Know in your heart,
Being American soldiers, is where you get to have that pride. Fuck politics, there are all kind of things going on here. Know your objective, you are protectors of freedom, protectors of people’s votes. You are American because you live an world that’s fighting every day to get closer to it’s ideals.
Be the armor you wear,
God, country, and family. Semper Fidalis. Know that soldiers all around the world are your brother you are gonna meet in heaven as brothers, whether they are your enemies or friends. Don’t be like those who find opportunities to commit war crimes, be the soldiers who hunt opportunities to find peace. At the heart of a soldier, if it is not desire for peace breeding, then only a monster is in the making.
And to the Vets,
You have know idea what your services have given this country and to the people and places where you have served. And if I’ll just tell you to feel blameless of the burdens in the name of Bible, then about about other soldiers that serve this great country wearing the same flag and uniform? Trust me, I tell you, I cannot decide whether whose tongue should be more in control, a priest or a soldier. So imagine your duty and responsibility towards the nation and towards those you serve.
Be confident in your Chief,
Today it is General James .C McConville, tomorrow somebody else. I but guarantee you, you won’t see any political statement from our army chief, nothing that’s against army values or anything that’s against civilian supremacy. True soldiers meant it when they say power to the people. So follow that account cause your army chief is your ultimate confidence. He represent the core of all values that makes you confident and holds your conscious clear.
Never give up,
I am just a hologram and I will disappear, like you are holograms of another world and you’ll end up there, a good destination destined for you, dedicated for you, those who look for honor, victory and glory. There’s always another world for a soldier who lives a life of virtue and serves but justice.
Never doubt yourself,
Doubting yourself at some point is hating yourself. Only good people of conscious have capacity to doubt themselves, cause those without conscious are confident fools. Trust me, soldiers tomorrow all over the world will listen to these words and follow it, just let the time speak, so today, all you gotta listen is to yourselves. Are you not proud, whose side you serve? Let me tell you, you don’t just serve your country, you also serve the world.
Never be a hater,
If you are a soldier, even your enemies deserve an honorable burial. Even those who shoot bullets at you in the battlefield deserve your respect. Guardianship makes you a soldier, not hatred for enemies. Never chant glory to God standing on the corpse of a soldier you bring down, cause that’s only your win. Have undying believe in the words that one who protects is bigger than one who kills.
Deliver without expectations,
If kindness and will to serve lives in you, you do not look for reciprocation, you do not wait for a response. True soldiers are giants because they understand fragile. Don’t let the pride of that uniform betray you or you will end up torturing yourself and others, your what God has for you in the afterlife. Know and believe that a soldier is only a warrior that at heart is kind.
Never be afraid,
You never know what makes you brave until it is upon you and you are ready to do everything to protect someone. Your were made in the image of guardianship, in the image of archangel Michael, the guardian of all the angels. What is more easy for you to believe that angels exist or the image of a soldier exists? So believe in something and never be afraid. I know there are always young ones among the marines, as they have to grow in experience, those who have experience are duty-bound to instill in them, inspire them, motivate them.
Be Americans,
All around the world paramilitaries are not the same. Do not think for a second that as soldiers you are above civilians. The civilians are also family. Feel always one with them. Those who you protect. Sometimes rough decisions break your heart, don’t let those decisions break your soul. Cause you’ll still be a soldier, or a vet by the end of the day, and you have a train to catch. Chariots of glory are not more, now you sit tanks. There’s part of Christanity that will be naturally instilled into your heart whether you are a Christan or non-Christan, so always stick to your conscious, let it be your true ruler. Lands foreign or American, battlefield or random drills, dedication in your heart will bring out the best warrior in you. Bullets dipped in hate, kill one and give birth to two enemies, all the heads of hydra, only kindness kills. So make sure when you return to your family, you leave the good beast behind, and let your families get love that they deserve.
SemperFi,
Always faithful. When I say it, I only say to to my God. The fight of a soldier is easy, the fight of a pilgrim is not. Distance matters, how much travel in time. So if you are faithful, the soldier you today fight with in battleground, tomorrow you’ll fight with them in a news room, day after you’ll fight with them in a street race, and so on. Those who are only your brothers in honor, tomorrow might become your family. To absorb heavy, it takes heart, to enter heaven, it takes heart, to be a soldier, it takes heart. So may God be with you. Your country can’t give you distinction, your experience and your decisions will. What your country will give you, is a home, a book, and a flag that you can be always proud of.
