      <H2>CHARLIE COMPANY, TBS MESS NIGHT - GUEST OF HONOR REMARKS</H2> 
   BY COLONEL JAMES. M. LOWE<BR>
COMMANDER, MARINE CORPS BASE QUANTICO<BR>
FROM THAT ELEGANT INTRODUCTION, YOU MAY OR NOT HAVE PICKED UP ON THE
FACT THAT I HAVE HAD 5 TOURS IN MARINE DIVISIONS, SERVING IN ALL 4
DIVISIONS AND 3D MARDIV TWICE. I HAVE MADE 8 MARINE EXPEDITIONARY
UNIT DEPLOYMENTS, SERVED WITH THE SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMMAND AND HAVE
BEEN TO EVERY LEVEL OF PME POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO HONE MY WARFIGHTING
SKILLS. UTILIZING YOUR GREAT DEDUCTIVE ABILITIES, INTELLECT AND
EXPERIENCE AS LIEUTENANTS, YOU SHOULD HAVE QUESTIONED THE CORPS
COLLECTIVE JUDGMENT WHEN THEY DECIDED TO MAKE ME A BASE COMMANDER! I
SURE AS HELL DID AND I STILL DO! LOOK UP "BASE" IN THE DICTIONARY!
ACCORDING TO MR. WEBSTER.... "LOWEST PART OR BOTTOM. HAVING OR
SHOWING LITTLE OR NO HONOR, COURAGE OR DECENCY; MEAN; IGNOBLE;
CONTEMPTIBLE; MENIAL OR DEGRADING; INFERIOR IN QUALITY; OF COMPARATIVE
LOW WORTH". SO..... AFTER 28 YEARS OF FOCUSING ON LOCATING,
CLOSING WITH AND DESTROYING, I'VE GOT THAT GOING FOR ME! THAT'S<br>

The sources said that some of the Bedouins who were arrested in connection with the bomb attacks at three tourist sites in the Sinai resorts have cooperated with investigators by saying they sold explosives to "strangers they don't know" in recent months.

	  Frank is of this week so I found this on the web...<br>
	  The Posse would like to commemorate the end of the "Assault Weapons Ban" by offering a gun review of the humble AR-15, the civilian version of the M-16. The one we own is made by Bushmaster and it is the no-frills standard model.

I had another of those pleasant, joy filled experiences.  I was invited<br>
to do the Invocation and Blessing for the Awards Banquet for a local convention of<br>
SWAT MEDICS... those precious people who, like military medics accompany<br>
troops, accompany SWAT teams on assignments into those places where personnel<br>
could be injured and need immediate attention in order to survive.  I experienced<br>
great and deep gratitude as I looked into the faces of all those people committed<br>
to life and safety.  No man alive has a better chance to see life up close and<br>
personal than I am privileged to experience... THANKS TO THE ACTIONS AND<br>
DUTY OF ALL PEACE KEEPERS...THOSE WHO ARE HERE NOW... AND THOSE<br>
