I want to express my gratitude for this opportunity to work with the men in the Knoll these past few months, and VQ today.

Tomorrow we celebrate the Marine Corps birthday, one of my favorite traditions as a Marine. This tradition of coming together includes a birthday ceremony, cutting of the cake, and celebration of our storied past that is very near to me. Today it is a reminder to me to recall where we have come from and adversities overcome so as to prepare ourselves to fulfill the work before us. IWhat Marines celebrate today is an image of that remembrance, and how that call to excellence calls me to become a better man, every day.

And life is always a little brighter with some birthday cake! πŸ˜‰ Β πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Β πŸ¦…πŸŒŽβš“οΈ πŸŽ‚

COT:
Hope is the most painful of virtues. It’s a desire for some good not yet attained. We can get too lost in the bad going on around us, but if we ever want our hope to be realized, we have to be the change. To leave a better world for our children, we must be better ourselves and raise good children. Raise them to love well, to fight hard, and surpass us in virtue.

Prayers for @squints as he moves next Monday.
