 When Marines join the Marine Corps, they're joining an organization that has thousands of predecessors who build a reputation were the toughest most feared force in the world and We don't surrender that reputation Except at our own peril. The reason nobody wants to fight us on the battlefield is because they know our reputation whether it be bella wood or Iwo Jima, they know what we're like and So you don't want to surrender that reputation Every Marine who comes in the Marine Corps every single one of us Must leave the Marine Corps in as good a condition or better than we received it and your own personal behavior is Often what is going to set that reputation for better or worse? And no Marine has the right to reduce our reputation We must all work together look out for one another and keep each other on the right path to strengthen that reputation Of no better friend no worse enemy. That's what we're all about
