There is a story, told for many years, many times over, of a moment so touching, it brought the toughest of Marines to tears. It was some time ago, when the war was all but lost, and it seemed that there was no hope remaining. The Commandant visted the base hospital, to personally present Purple Hearts to those Marines who had given so much. One particular Marine, a Lance Corporal if memory serves correctly, was one of those recipiants. Hooked up to all sorts of gadgets and gizmoes, just to stay alive, the young man could barely see, and was fighting to simply stay alive. He didn't know who had entered the room until he felt the four stars, and immediatly tried to say something. Mumbled and jarbled by weakness and medical machines, a nurse quickly passed him a padd. With weak hands, that Lance Corporal wrote simply, "Semper Fi." Nothing else needed to be said.
