I've had the privilege of meeting both a Marine Nam vet whose Father was a Montford Marine and then a few years later an actual Montford Marine vet. He was surprised I actually was aware of their service. Both outstanding men!
This was in the Flint Michigan area. The Nam Vet served in I Corps as did I.
All Marines are green Semper Fi you got darker green Marines and you got lighter green Marines
Awww that’s so sweet God bless you
Amen!
Haha i love that!
Excellent stuff as always, this is one of the reasons why researching about history schools don't teach is important.
Thanks for watching
My stepdad was a Marine, he was in the Korean War. He told me many stories of boot camp but never about the war. He passed away 2 years ago and I miss him.😞
Thank you . Gentleman
Great interview, great guest, great story! Can’t wait to read this book 😍 God bless you both and God bless all who serve and who have served 🙏🏽
Wonderful! Thanks for watching
@@FORGOTTENHISTORYCHANNEL It’s my pleasure and my honor 🫶🏽 You truly do enlighten and educate so many of us. All Americans should count themselves lucky we’ve got heroes like you to remind us of our seemingly long-forgotten values 🙏🏽
Colin - really appreciate the long form interview with a person like this! Thank you for recording this for posterity!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I remember when I went through Parris Island how the Marine Corps dealt with race, "There is no black or white or any other color Marines other than GREEN - There are dark green and light green Marines" - Marine training is all about being professionals, period, we're all brothers - Semper Fi
Thanks again Colin.
Good night Chesty, wherever You are.
I love history. I really enjoy your work, thank you for all the great presentations.
Our pleasure!
Thank you so much Colin!
My pleasure!
Super informative ! Although next time you have this guest on, tell him to center his head onto the screen, as we only see 1/2 his face through most of the interview.
Yes indeed.
Can you do least corrupt on former presidents?
We have and will continue. Please check out our most corrupt playlist
Happy Juneteenth Liberation Day 1619 -1865 246 yrs. of Slavery to 159 yrs. Now & Forever Free. A Old Montford Point Marine Said the USA is a Crazy Country But It's the Only Country We Got. Semper-Fi Mac'. (smile)

"Racial Inequality will never go away."
You know, it is an odd position being Generation X. Our elders, the Boomers, truly believe it when they say "racism still exists." On the other side, the younger ones...the Millenials and the Zoomers...they hae all convinced themselves of the same thing. But here we, Generation X, sit in the middle wondering what in the hall all of you are talking about.
Our generation killed racism. Hell, I hae been married to a blacl woman for 21 years and have full grown, tan children. My generation, we never did and we still do not give a damn about race. The older people lived in a time when it mattered, and we get that. But the younger ones...hell they had to revive racism and make it cool again.
To Generation X...we think you are ALL nuts when it comes to this.
Great work😀
