‘Devil Dog’ term taking a beating
Listen up, Devil Dogs. Oh yeah, that got your attention. Perhaps it even got your blood boiling? Or maybe you didn’t notice the big double-D.
Lately, reactions to the Corps’ longtime nickname generally depend on the age of the Marine listening.
A generational divide is opening around the term “Devil Dog,” which came into use 90 years ago on the battlefields of France. While it’s been a term of colloquial endearment for generations of leathernecks, some of the newest and youngest Marines say they’re tired of being called Devil Dogs. They even take offense at the term.

Operation Care Package 24/7
This is a great way to send care packages because OCP247 is the primary corporate sponsor for VETERANS OF VALOR http://www.veteransofvalor.org (not for profit 501 3 C) which provides backpacks with and IPOD and/or PSP, break away clothing for wounds, athletic wear, Bible, etc. for combat wounded who have six months or more of recovery. Group trips to Dave & Busters for meals and games are a favorite. Transportation is provided as well.
It is a win-win. Each dollar does double duty as it supports our troops with great stuff…it also helps those who are wounded. This is the ONLY care package site established and operated by a wounded vet.
