Premium MemberMarine Corps USPS Stamp

This stamp brings visions to our eyes
Of years gone by, in summer's skies.
He left to join our freedom's sound;
And band of brothers, there he found.

To guard our freedom, his thoughts turned-
For love of country surely burned;
With comrades joined, to then unfold
a unity of strength untold.

Two hundred fifty years this year
Marine Corps- still, to us so

To the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps

Do stand against them with all might. Their favor or disfavor
Is not what you have ever sought. Those who hanged their own saver,
The Judases whose shame resides for ever on their foul brows,
Are born of lies in lands of lies and false are their filthy vows.
They have once nailed their Messiah with two thieves of

Police Corps

P-arading at ceremonies, protecting and preventing conflicts and violence
O-fficiating official outings and offering guides and shields
L-anguishing your own at any point of call
I-nvestigating initials of the inevitable crimes and dooms
C-onfident to move to meet flaming fuse and fights
E-xpectations too huge to meet …’where were the police?’

C-rimes deter your presence in humility and respect
O-bvious are the

Esprit De Corps

When achievements stops to you and says bye.
You must learn to espy opportunity.
Try to give the best even at stale conditions
What you do is not erroneous.
You are the esoteric one.
You can,we know, you'll, we know
Don't let your life go
Simply like air blow
Earn Esprit de corps.

Don't think yourself as nitwit or a ninny
You can do which

Pledge of a Youth Corps Member

I thought one day to play my part and I was sent

Now I’m in a strange land but not a stranger in the land

We’re gathered here, bearing one purpose in mind

And looking gaily, bright faces, fresh from home

I have been camped here for eighteen days now

I have been equipped and armed to the teeth

With great

Peace Corps

Two women in their twenties
Were conversing where I sat.
They chatted ‘bout their lives,
A little this, a bit of that.

But one thing that I overheard
Sure made me pay attention,
For entering the Peace Corps
Was one woman’s planned intention.

She’d just returned from Africa,
Four months in Cameroon.
She hoped her Peace Corps stint
Would take her someplace else real soon.

I marveled

Marine Corps Salute

Fighting the fight way away from me
Reunited in my dream
I stand motionless
Eyeing his stillness
I inquire about his thoughts
His attention I caught
A silent conversation we had
Feeling everything but sad
Our brotherhood takes root
As I wake up to salute

U.S.M.C.
