...I figured you would enjoy this Gunny....when I found this story I thought of you...:salute:

Dan Daily and John Basilone are the heroes of every enlisted Marine that straps on a pair. I remember once before I got out my Marines called me "old school" and "hard corps". I didn't get it at the time. Dan Daily was hard corps to me. LtGen Barrows who was in charge of Operation Dewey Canyon who attacked into Laos THEN asked for permission (which was denied). THOSE were my heroes.

Dan Daily was an SOB from Hell. The Battle of Belleau Woods at Chateau Thierry was where Gunny Daily took charge from a weak as officer and said we ain't going to lose. And we didn't. That's just how we roll.
