I was on a business trip to Mobile and I decided to make a pilgrimage to the grave of E. B. Sledge.
He is buried at the Pine Crest Cemetery in Mobile, Alabama in the SW corner of section 12 R near a non paved road. Ironically he is not listed as one of the famous persons buried in the cemetery.

Who Knew? He Really Does Exist…
One of the most famous Marine Recruits of all time. A member of this family has been trying to graduate bootcamp for decades!
Last of the USO Bob Hope
It still blows my mind seeing all the pictures of Bob Hope through the many conflicts this country has seen.
Attached is my picture of Mr. Bob Hope from the sands of Saudi Arabia in late 1990.
He couldn't bring the girls but Johnny Bench was there.
We lost an icon that only Service members know.

Thank you for your choice in preserving our freedom
As each and everyone who served in Iraq and Afganistan, thank you… People in the States really quite don't understand why the U.S. is a free Country. They're freedom comes from each and every member of our Armed Forces.. The last time the United States was invaded around 1916, and that was Poncho Villas men in a small New Mexico town…
Here we go to save the day!
Marine for life.
Not so old school
I wanted something a little different from the norm and this is what my artist came up with. The eagle flying represents freedom and if you turn the tat sideways Brazil is actually a skull that represents death and the lives given for the freedom.
My Veteran’s Day Present…
Korea, 1951
I did not know any of the Marines of F-2-5 personally in Korea during 1951 but served with them. As a section leader of heavy machine guns with W-2-5 from Jan. 51 through Jan. 52 my guns were assigned to Dog, Easy or Fox company during our many combat actions against communist forces. We were all young, filled with patriotism and comradeship with a common goal.
