Happy 246th, Marines! Fellow Veterans (of all branches!), my life has been in the hands of EVERY branch at "hairy" times... so I mean it... I heart the sh** out of you.

I was honored (in a very hurried up way... 48 hrs) to have a Veterans Art Nonprofit ask for a painting for the 100th anniversary of the Unknown Soldier Tomb this year. I wish I had more time (like a MONTH instead of 48 hrs) but still really liked what I was able to get done on piece of scrap plywood.

Thanks Harry! My bestfriend in Corps was from Long Island (Merrick)! We both started off as 2 reserve grunts in a West Virginia unit (so they they didn't understand everything he said but thought he was funny because his accent. They thought I was too,... yet I was from freak'n Virginia. I never got that).
