"Joining the United
States Marine Corps will place you alongside more than 40,000
young men and women who will take control of their futures this year.
Like them, you are probably seeking a challenge and the opportunity to
become a success. And like them, you are ready to set goals and travel
a path toward your destiny. On the way to becoming a Marine,
you will be trained in the art of self-mastery, acquiring self-discipline,
the courage to undertake difficult tasks, and a steadfast commitment to
overcoming the challenges before you. More than that, you will become
a part of a very special organization built on a foundation of honor,
courage and commitment. At the core of every Marine
is the warrior spirit, a person imbued with the special kind of personal
character that has defined greatness and success for centuries. And in
this organization, you will be regarded as family. Marines
are warriors. Comprised of smart, highly adaptable men and women, the
Marine
Corps serves as the aggressive tip
of the U.S. military spear. Ours is a smaller, more dynamic force
than any other in the American arsenal, and the only forward-deployed
force designed for expeditionary
operations by air, land, or sea. It is our size and expertise that
allow us to move faster. Working to overcome disadvantage and turn conflict
into victory, we accomplish great things, and we do so together. In the
Marine
Corps, there is a motto that describes our commitment to each other,
our organization, and our country. It is Semper Fidelis or "Semper
Fi." Translated from Latin, it means "Always Faithful."
