Happy Birthday Marines! Show your USMC pool stuff!

My brother is a diehard Marine. You wouldn't know it when speaking with him, but if one were to ever cross him, God have mercy on their soul. 
He exercises every single day, 100 pushups, 100 situps, stretches, swims laps in the pool, et cetera, et cetera. He is a vegetarian, doesn't drink alcohol and doesn't smoke ciggies. He's got six-pack abs and is solid muscle. He has a small frame, and you would never know how powerful he is by looking at him clothed.
Every single pool tournament I ever went to in the last 10 years, I bought a T-shirt, a jacket, sweatshirts, et cetera. My BF went from a size 32 waist to 38 over the years. He outgrew those pool clothes, so I gave them to my brother. And I mean a lot of pool clothes.
It's so funny to hear him relay stories of people who have come up to him when he's wearing a U.S. Open 9-Ball Championship T-shirt or a pool room shirt. They ask him questions like where does he play, what's his favorite game, what kind of cue does he use, et cetera. Meanwhile, my brother can't beat me. :grin:
One thing about pool, it is a very social game. It does seem to open up a dialogue between people. Even when you're playing the game, it's fun to converse with your opponent or team members if on a league. That's what I like best about pool.
So, semper fi to my brother. God bless the marines, soldiers, sailors, airmen, coasties, and the reserves!

The local Funarel home always has a Marine Corps Birthday program, and lunch for Old Marines. Think they are trooling for customers.
Lets see some more. Any pool cues out there?

Well, sheesh, JoeyA. It begs the question: Which one of those fine young lads are you?
My son collected some of my keepsakes from the Corps and put them into this case and gave this to me as a Father's Day gift.

Put them up for us to see.
Happy belated birthday Marines! I just got back from Cherry Point where I was stationed over 25yrs ago. I used to play 9 ball just about every day off base. My old bars are all gone now but there is a great room that I found with some fine diamonds. I collected some things from some of the Marines I played pool with. Some items I can show you and some I can't. I had a great time, really fun hanging out with the Marines again!
