We are standing by to make the ride as soon as we find out the gathering place. We respect and give honor to those in the military who give so much so we can be free. May God comfort the family and friends of LCpl Rush.

I hope you understand that we do have Civilian's and Vets of other service's alike. I do not know if I had seen where a Marine was refering to himself as a Soldier. But it is perfectly understandable for those not in the know to do so. It is just a gratefull recognition to someone who is/has served, from those who have not.
Coming from a Sailor, I have been called a Soldier in the past, and I am sure I will again. It doesn't bother me one bit, as long as used respectfuly.
