General Sutton was one of the more famous examples, but I knew a lot of Marines that history will never know. I had a good friend, Bill Warren, who was a role model for me while I was the best Marine Corporal in the business. And I was in awe of a L/Cpl. named Julio Rios who I thought should have been promoted to Sgt., bypassing Cpl. He was a great Marine.<br /><br />I was blessed to know a lot of legends, some that we all consider legends, but a lot that no one will ever know about. And I was able to know a lot of Marines that never did seem to understand what an honor it was to be a Marine.<br /><br />At my dad's retirement, an old Marine cornered me and told me my old company CO told him I was a good Marine. I asked him what his name was, and the old guy, a Hue City vet, said he didn't know. I told him I had two former CO's at the reception. One was a suck dick ass kisser who's opinion was surely colored by the fact that my dad was a general. If it was him, I don't care. If it was the other guy, I consider it the highest compliment I have ever been paid.<br /><br />I still don't know which one it was, but I'm guessing it was the suck dick.Tenth Generation Patriothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191408658143390459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477626023528352764.post-4920737001177193382011-12-20T20:49:33.489-05:002011-12-20T20:49:33.489-05:00Tenth,
