A Story.
Chris Merrimette
A man has a lot of choices,

and these choices made in life are rarely perfect.
Chris Merrimette
So he decides to sign a contract,
Chris Merrimette
because he want's to make a difference.
Chris Merrimette
He wants to save this world, make it a better place.
Chris Merrimette
The consequences are punishing,

unforgiving,

So what's the fucking point?
Chris Merrimette
I guess the point is responsibility of duty.
Chris Merrimette
Love of country.
Chris Merrimette
A way of life.
Chris Merrimette
Are we on the right side of this?
Chris Merrimette
These aren't our questions to ask.
Chris Merrimette
A Marine fights for the person standing next to him.
Chris Merrimette
He fights for the man who can't stand anymore.
Chris Merrimette
He fights so that others can have the opportunity to make a difference.
Chris Merrimette
That's how we make the unforgiving forgivable.
Chris Merrimette
And if we're lucky, somewhere in all the fighting and dying, we discover hope.
Chris Merrimette
And the Marines who killed and bled and died will always be jarheads.
Chris Merrimette
Their families will have to live with the unbearable demands of their ultimate sacrifice.
Chris Merrimette
And the ones who make it home, we never really leave our brothers behind.
Chris Merrimette
We always remember.
Chris Merrimette
We're professional fighting men. We are jarheads.
