I am a 4th generation United States Marine. Served in first Gulf War in '90-'91.Upon coming home I had a heavy heart and admitted feeling guilt.A brother Marine that organizes our local Toys 4 Tots drive every year, invited me to volunteer with the collecting, sorting and finally the distributing of toys to families in need. That was December 1991. 27 years have passed, and I have volunteered in some way each year. There is no greater deed or gift I have ever been given than that of seeing each and every child have gifts to open on Christmas morning. No child should wake up to find that "Santa didn't come"...The United States Marine Corps Reserve will carry on this tradition, as long as the real heroes of this event keep donating new unwrapped toys and donations each year. Thank you for donating to Toys 4 Tots folks!!! YOU AND YOU ONLY MAKE CHRISTMAS FOR THOSE LESS FORTUNATE GREAT!!! THANK YOU, MERRY CHRISTMAS , SEMPER FIDELIS.......
I've been a Marine for eight years and have contributed to Toys for Tots every year, I will support their cause for the rest of my life. This video makes me even more proud to be a Marine. Semper Fi~
Carlos Gallegos been a soldier for 12 and I never miss a beat helping out you guys for Toys for Tots. God willing we can bring more smiles to kids faces
I'm so touched by the compassion our Marines have for the United States of America, our Families & most of all our Children. Our Children will can will be the future generation
This right here is the true meaning of Christmas! It's a very beautiful message that the Marines are sending to small children that aren't as fortunate as others. I can't wait until I ship, and the Second Lieutenant is right, it really is a great feeling to help others in need just by volunteering time out of your day. HOORAH and Merry Christmas, Marines!
OMG, that's the most tenderhearted & kind, heartfelt thing anyone can do for our children in this country! And to see some of our own Marines out there giving those less fortunate children in that school just made me that much more PROUD of our men & women in uniform, serving their/our country, doing just a little bit more for our little ones is such a wonderful, heartwarming thing to see! My son is a Marine & I know he'd do the same thing!! He does already whenever he can...OORAH!!! Go USMC!!
The fact is they are our future, my only hope is that they are able to make a better world so that one day we marines are no longer needed and when that day comes ill gladly take my boots of and lay my rifle down

I would love for the song to benefit the forces and/or vets...it is non- commercial so if someone can figure out how to use it for their benefit let me know! Sloppy
