NATIONAL MUSEUM OF THE MARINE CORPS
A trip to the temple of our gods.
Lots of discussion about the ARG/MEU team recently.
Here’s a few of our thoughts on what ARG/MEUs can, could, and should do.

We are fortunate for such young men and women who will give everything for our fellow Americans.

The Marine Corps now officially flies the most deadly air to air fighter in the world.
May their families be proud that they served our country honorably when it was not easy to do so.
If Iran hasn't struck back yet, and doesn't, Congress may make this an awkward week for the CJCS and SECDEF.

Non-Christian Americans sacrificed for our country, too.

Who is infantry dort?
What war has he seen?
I didn’t see him in Al Anbar, Iraq, or Helmand Province, Afghanistan.
JUST MARRIED Buy us a drink! CASH APP $sb052 VENMO Sblovett1
Let’s buy this Marine and their new spouse a drink!
Patriotism resounds across time
Let’s get our Marines & Sailors paid (the Constitutional way) 🇺🇸
This is exactly the type of story young Marines need to hear.
It’s about confronting self-doubt, overcoming challenges, building esprit de corps, and - last but not least - becoming a Marine.
We are profoundly fortunate to have such young Americans join our ranks.
Despite government shutdowns and not receiving pay, Marines keep serving and sacrificing for our Constitution.
Fair winds and following seas, Marine.
Condolences to the family of the fallen Marine, and wishes for a quick recovery of the injured aviator.
CLINT EASTWOOD HEARTBREAK RIDGE
No that was a good intervention though because it gave us the documentary Heartbreak Ridge.
"I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested." ~ SMEDLEY BUTLER
Smedley Butler had some thoughts about our misadventures in the Caribbean and South America.
This would be the dumbest war in our nation’s history.
What are some emerging and disruptive technologies the military should be looking at besides the usual AI, autonomy, additive manufacturing? @marforbluesky.bsky.social
Just as Marines have gained proficiency in fire and maneuver at the tactical level, Marines of tomorrow have to gain the knowledge of how exploit suppressive counter-C5ISRT effects to maneuver battalions, squadrons, regiments, and groups under cover.
During WWII the 442nd RCT, a segregated unit of Japanese-American soldiers, joined the 36th ID, formerly of the Texas National Guard.
More than 800 442nd members were later killed or wounded rescuing 211 Texans trapped behind enemy lines.
Service to our country once - and can again - unite us.

Your Marines and Sailors (and all service members) have been working for four days without pay.
