Marine Corps League Motherlode Detachment 1080

Today it is 18 years since our family's journey through the hell of war began. We will never let up and #NeverForget911. God bless the United States, our allies, and all those lost. Candy Maness and I share our memories in this short video.

Today I see a lot of posts regarding the Twin Towers and rightfully so. I would like to see as much attention given to the Pentagon as well. Everyone needs to be remembered and never forgotten. This one day has continued to take the lives of our service men and women for 19 years. Both at home and abroad. This one day created 22 a day. Semper Fidelis

19 years ago tomorrow. Where were you when the world stop turning? I would like to open up the page for comments, pictures, memories, and anything you would like to share as we remember and never forget. Semper Fidelis https://youtu.be/a7BDWF3sDDc
