in Nov. - This will take a lot of work, but should be worth it.;-)
It will be worth every minute of time that it takes to pull that off!! Just an awesome event. The memories and that special feeling in your heart when you leave will last a lifetime. OOOORAH!

I don't know anything at all about the USMC Ball.
But I do know two very important words. Use these words any time Mrs. File tells you she wants to do something.
Yes Dear.
You should also, when appropriate, learn and use two other brief phrases.
No Dear. (Useful when asked questions like "Do these jeans make my butt look fat")
And ....
Whatever you say dear.
Learn these things and you'll do fine. 😉

and if he throws in the occasional "WOW !! NOT ONLY BEAUTIFUL, BUT SMART TOO!! he will soon rule the world!! (Sucking up never killed a man when dealing with his SWMBO)

A raunchier version of this was common with the Marines in WW 2, Dad used to run through it occasionally, he never would write it down. Didn't know it was so common with the Pacific Marines until years later when reading a non fiction book about the WW2 Marines. You can see why I was reminded.
The Dogies had a Ball
Oh the dogs they had a meeting, they came from near and far.
Some dogs came by motor bus, some by motor car.
On entering the meeting hall, each dog could take a look
Where he had to hang his tail, high up on a hook.
Now when they were assembled, each canine son and sire,
Some dirty Bulldog son of a bitch jumped up and hollered "FIRE".
Now all was in a panic, 'Twas hell upon to look,
Each doggie grabbed at random a tail from a hook.
The tails were all mixed up which made each doggie sore,
To have to wear another dog's tail he'd never worn before.
And that is why until this day a dog will leave a bone,
To run and smell another dog's tail to see if it's his own.
If they happen to have the New Orleans Marine Corp Brass Band...it would certainly be worth it.
One of my favorite New Orleans bands for jazz and parades.

Where will you be attending the ball? My son is at Lejune but may go to Parris Isl. since they just bought a house near Savannah.

They are having a Ball here in K-town- there is a pretty good contingient of Retired Military here and the marines amongst them have started having a ball- the proceeds go to a charity-
i belive this is the 3rd or fourth year they've done it.

FIRST I DO NOT INTEND TO TURN THIS THREAD POLITICAL!!
IN FACT I CONSIDERED POSTING THIS UNDER HUMOR.
Any chance the current silly food fight in D.C. will prevent participation of active duty military?
If so I suggest SWMBO be forewarned. Also suggest she and other USMC wives be directed to those of all political ilks for resolution of grievance. A few USMC wives storming D.C. would put all the million whomever marches to shame.
