 As a contemporary military force, Marines are asked to do many things. But the American people demand one thing, and that is that we fight and win battles. Every year we demand more and more of our Marines, and history has proven that Marines are capable of giving more. Our partners, as well as the American people, expect excellence. Our history demonstrates excellence. In uncertain times, Marines and sailors of Marfa Rez and Marfa South continue to remain ready, responsive and relevant. As always, the strength of the force comes from the individual Marine and the audacity and proficiency of the smaller unit leader. The United States Marines. No better friend, no worse enemy. Semper Fidelis Marines.
