Three Marine Principles of NCO Leadership:
First, be technically tactically proficient...

Secondly, know your men and look out for their welfare...

Thirdly, and most importantly, you must set the example.

I fight for Freedom,
I don't ask for much more,
My God, my Family
My Country, my Corps.

It's God's responsibility to forgive terrorists. It's the Marine Corp's
responsibility to arrange the meetings.

They're on our right, they're on our left, they're in front of us,
they're behind us; they can't get away from us this time.
