The back has a saw-tooth hanger for easy wall hanging.

ASK ME WHAT I WAS
I'll reply with what I've done.
Those things others would not do, I did;
Those rivers others would not swim, I swam;
Those hills others would not climb, I conquered;
Those bridges others would not cross, I crossed;
I have celebrated. I have mourned.
I have smiled and I have frowned.
I have seen death and felt its warm breath.
It did not faze me, for I was different.
I was a warrior.
You ask me what I was?
It was my destiny. Until my last breath.
To be a United States Marine.
And my spirit shall live forever.
SEMPER FIDELIS
For I was, I am, and I shall forever be a
UNITED STATES MARINE
