Better










Graduation is only 
a few days away
 and the recruits 
of Platoon 3092 
are salty.

They are ready to 
eat their own guts 
and ask for seconds.

Their Drill-Instructors 
are proud to see that 
We are Growing Beyond 
Their Control.

The Marine Corps 
Does not want Robots.
The Marine Corps 
wants Killers.
The Marine Corps 
wants to build 
Indestructible Men.

Men without Fear.

Today, You People are 
no-longer maggots.
Today, You are Marines.
You're part of 
A Brotherhood.

From now on, until 
The Day You Die
wherever you are, 
every Marine 
is Your Brother.

Most of you will go to Vietnam.
Some of you will not come back.
But always remember this :
Marines Die.

That's what we're here for.
But, The Marine Corps 
Lives Forever;
and that means, 
You Live Forever.
