Editing The Marine Bible (section)

===Chapter One:===

1.	Thus sayeth Marine Executive, Richard Ian Lee: “In times of battle, never falter. Your courage and your wits must always be on you as armor. Though thou shall be in hopeless situations, you shalt never give up and crawl home in the deluge of defeat, but instead press on and hold thy head high in the winds of Victory.

2.	“For Always shall there be strife, and in strife a Marine excels. There shall be many times thou shalt want to give up, but trust instead in the wisdom of command while keeping a wise head about you as well, and you shall do well.

3.	“And in times of worry, when you know not if you might survive and are lacking in courage and in the necessary toughness required for survival, doth remember the following words and let them give you strength:

4.	“Thou I talk the talk, and walk the walk, I shall fear no evil. And thou I might be blown into the sky, through the pearly gates and land at the feet of the Lord head first: Via Heavy Explosives: I shall fear no enemy and shall target them as mine enemy likewise targets me. For in my heart of hearts, I know I fight for a good cause, for the Federation and my family, which doth live therein. 

5.	“For verily I knowest that I am important to the Federations defense, and that my life though given, is given freely and at high cost to those who would attack the institution for which I live and defend. 

6.	“In the Name of the Federation, The Starfleet and the Marine Corps we do pray: HOO WAH!

7.	And when he was done, MXO Richard Ian Lee did sit down before his squad, and proceed to tell them of their heritage and of the future of the corps.
