Why can’t they see…
… why a young man/woman wants to join the Corps
… why they want to do this and ask for nothing more
… what is hidden inside
… the things they do to keep their hearts
filled with pride
Why can’t they see…
… the reasoning behind of what
they feel they have to do
… what it means to serve with a group
that were the names like leatherneks,
devil dogs and jar heads just to name a few
… what it is means to be to proud
… the things they do to stand out in a crowd
Why can’t they see…
… the things that most men have never seen
… the reasons of why they want to serve as a
