10/23/01 241 Marines

Edited on Thu Oct-23-03 06:15 PM by underpants

I don't come in here to often but I was just watching ABC World News Tonight and they had a story on the Beirut bombing 20 years ago today.

I am/was not a Marine though my stepfather, stepbrother, and uncle were. I served as a Cav Scout in post wall Germany.

This is a day that should be burned into the American psyche.

In honor of the Marines lost that day.

1. Agreed

Too bad many under the age of 40 think Beirut is a rock band or something.
