I am working on my e-book actually an e-guide- called Served with Pride- How to record your military service, share your stories and leave a legacy.

Tonight I was adding a couple of quotes, and as I was looking for some, came across some really powerful ones.  I must tell you that I am a big Ronald Reagan fan.  I remember being 8 years old sitting in front of the big console TV with the wooden box (yes, I am old enough to have experienced that!).  My mom was yelling at me for being too close to the screen as I was watching Reagan's first inaugural address.

Anyway, here some of my favorite Ronald Reagan quotes.  feel free to reply with your favorite military or history quotes, and I may add them in a Quotes section sometime soon.

Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem.
