About this listen

Last week, I threw on the uniform — yeah, I still fit in it — and headed to the Marine Corps Ball. What hit me wasn’t just the pride of wearing those blues again, but the realization that time keeps marching on... fast. In this episode, I talk about the bond that never breaks, even when the hair grays and the flagpole feels a little farther away. From the traditions that remain unchanged to the new generation of Marines who are holding the line, I share what it means to age as a warrior, to feel like the “old guy in the room,” and to still stand tall in the legacy we built.

This one’s for every Devil Dog who still feels that fire inside — even if the knees creak louder than your boots these days.
