Happy birthday Col. Bill. As a loyal Marine you are a symbol of courage, strength and patriotism. I'll sip some good single malt scotch and smoke a good cigar in your honor.

Hey Lt. Lunch, well, it looks like we are now both octogenarians. It seems like yesterday that you were in command of the Mess Hall. I hope you have a wonderful birthday as well as a wonderful Christmas. My best to Linda.

As Lucille Ball once said, “The secret of staying young is to live joyously, eat slowly and lie about your age." Have a great birthday, my friend.
