To the men of the First Battalion Seventh Marines who served during the Vietnam War, and especially to those 566 Marines and Corpsmen who made the Ultimate Sacrifice with their lives, we honor and remember you.

"Every Marine, in the warrior spirit, fights viciously and tenaciously, not only because of the enemy in front of him but for the men beside him and the loved ones behind him."

- William Shakespeare
