But boys we’ve got a riser, a riser in our midst
And he will get the last laugh if it’s the last thing he did
And he used to roll around in that red dirt mud
But now he’s skipping town and that riser’s out for blood
For a man that volunteered for a job that requires him to keep his hair cut short and clean shaven, and done it most of his life means I’ve learned patience while this beard and hair grows out!!!!
75 years ago today, U.S. armed forces hit the beaches of Iwo Jima. Among them was Medal of Honor recipient @USMC GySgt John Basilone. After destroying a Japanese blockhouse, he and four Marines were killed by artillery. He is laid to rest in Section 12. #IwoJima75#MOHatANC 1/
