SEMPER FIDELIS

To all my fellow brothers and sisters serving in America's all-volunteer military, thank you for your service and sacrifices in support of our freedoms. 

Marine Air Support Squadron-3 - Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom 10.2 (September 2009-March 2010)

"The Marine Corps is America’s Expeditionary Force in Readiness — a balanced air-ground-logistics team. We are forward-deployed and forward-engaged — shaping, training, deterring and responding to all manner of crises and contingencies. We create options and decision space for our Nation’s leaders. Alert and ready, we respond to today’s crisis, with today’s force…TODAY. Teaming with other services, allies and interagency partners, we enable and participate in joint and combined operations of any magnitude. Responsive and scalable, we operate independent of local infrastructure. A middleweight force, we are light enough to get there quickly, but heavy enough to carry the day upon arrival. We operate throughout the spectrum of threats — irregular, hybrid, or conventional — or the shady areas where they overlap. Marines are ready to respond whenever the Nation calls…wherever the President may direct.”
        - General Amos, Commandant of the Marine Corps
