When the hard times come

Today I had to shoot my little wire haired terrier to put him out of his misery. He’s been with me for 24 years & finally got to where he was in pain all the time & couldn’t even eat or get up any more. Sometimes in life you have to make tough choices; & @ those times being a Marine helps, because a Marine always does what he has to do.That’s what I told my wife Coco on the way to the ranch to put him out of his misery. I have to be a Marine now. As a Marine I could pull the trigger when I had to; even when it took 3 shots to end his misery. Someone I know who thinks he’s tough couldn’t do it for me when it got right down to it. I did my own ex wife’s funeral service. I sang @ my own dad’s funeral. I simply was a Marine again & did what I had to do.I pray all of you can be good Marines when the hard times come.
