Chapter 77 Honor Courage Commitment.

• What defines fear? The feeling that grips your stomach, suffocates your lungs, and tears your heart will slow agony from your chest.
• What is fear for a Marine? The joke that you tell at night around the fire. It brings you only but a sense of what you truly are. You fight, and you fight to the end.
• But what is fear when you see it on the faces of the men that you vow to protect? It is a pain that rips your flesh from your body to an agonizingly slow pace.
