The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

An Old Marine, Well Sorta, Celebrates the 238th Birthday

Today, November 10th, 238 years ago, the USMC was established. Yesterday, I went to the Tom Grosvenor Memorial Marine Corps Breakfast with a whole big roomful of jarheads at the Fox Lake (Ill.) American Legion.

I was a Marine for six short weeks in OCS at Quantico, Virginia, as they needed second lieutenants but then the Vietnam War ended so they didn't need me.

Regardless, I was Marinized.

I'll be writing about it next week in my Wortld War II blog.

Happy Birthday, USMC. --RoadDog
