Description

The listing, The Marines Have Landed! has ended.

For all you grunts and jarheads out there, this bid is for you. Ladies, if your husband or boyfriend is a Marine, this is still for him but it’s a gift worth giving.

What you see in the pictures, is what you get (Minus my picture). I did have a Marine Corp cap, but my dog got a hold of it about a year ago and never bothered to replace it.

USMC Challenge Coin. On the front it says ‘United States Marine Corps with the emblem. ’On the reverse it says, ‘Marine Security Guard Detachment, Shanghai, China’.

One lightweight wall plaque, with Marine Corp emblem laid onto the plaque and separate plaque for mounting on it.

A small hanging Marine Corp banner/emblem (don’t know exactly how to put it.).

One hanging 100% polyester made throw coverlet for just about anything you want to put this on, or tack it on you wall. Roughly 60” x 36”.

1 green shirt. Bearing homemade ribbons on the front and one patch on each sleeve. The one on the left says U.S. Marine Corps – Vietnam 1959-75 and the other side says 3rd Marine Division. On both sides are sergeant stripes. One small pin badge on the front saying ‘Always Faithful’.

The shirt is 50% polyester and 50% cotton, medium size. Never worn. A one of a kind item.

1 black t-shirt that says on the front ‘Onward to Victory, Defending Freedom, U.S. Marines since 1775’. On the back it says the same thing, only U.S. Marines is spelled out and there is no 1775 there; also medium size.

In the comment section I have left a poem. Feel free to copy.

All Listia rules apply. I ship 1-2 days of auction end and provide tracking. But with Labor day weekend, items will be shipped Sept. 6th or 7th.

This will be the only item I offer GIN. If the bidding reaches 50% of this value, GIN will be turned off automatically.

As always, a pre-congratulations to the winner.

Ya'll take care now, ya hear!

Brother’s Not Forgotten

Thinking back on private memories,
memories shared at a time with solid friends,
friends no less than true brother’s,
brother’s no less, holding onto a sacred trust.

This bond shared is but for the few,
few if any outside the circle has any idea,
for not many are accepted to share this life.

A brother is more than a friend,
more than a conversation,
more than good times.

A brother is sharing what’s precious,
not money, not idle conversation,
but their life without hesitation.

A brother knows when called upon,
they arrive to assist in any way,
help solve the problem.

A brother gives his arm for strength,
his blood for life,
his heart for all time.

There have been not many to share that trust,
but of those who are,
those still dependent upon when needed,
without question,
arrive in full spirit asking no questions.

To feel the soul of a brother in arms,
is to feel the power of brotherhood.
More than just sharing a beer and a smoke,
more than shedding blood for a reason,
but to mourn in silence, a brother fallen.

Thinking back on private memories,
memories shared at a time with solid friends,
friends no less than true brother’s,
are brother’s not forgotten.
