Chapters

Hoorah, Marines. I didn't hear you. Hoorah, Marines.
My service in the Marine Corps was a huge part of my life. I would not be the Vice President of the United States.
I would not be the man I.
Am today were it not for those four years that I served in the Marine Corps. You don't enlist in the Marine Corps to make money. And you all know that's exactly right. Enlisting in the Marines would teach me many things, including discipline and the virtue, virtue of leadership. I realized I had a responsibility to.
Something so much greater than myself, and I had an obligation to act on.
That feeling of duty. And I know that's something that animates every single one of you, whether you're.
A private or a general. That spirit of service has been the spirit of the Marine Corps for two.
And a half centuries.
My fellow Marines, you have the watch. Now, our motto, Marines, is Semper fidelis, which means in Latin, always faithful. Though the shape of the battlefield will change, our nation will be just fine. So long as fellow Marines, just like you, remain faithful to that great Marine Corps legacy. You honor that legacy and how you fight and win the nation's battles.
Boldness in action, unity in purpose, and a lightning readiness to go wherever the nation required.
So from one vice president to an incredible United States Marine Corps. Keep kicking ass. Keep taking names. Semper fidelis. Marines.
