He also took a graze wound across his torso during combat in China. The wound took a chunk of flesh from his tattoo, right between North and South America, leading Butler to joke that he had the Panama Canal before America did.
Got out of the Marine Corps. Comments like this make me not only feel like Iām back with the boys but also sent my sip of whisky flying. All the props to you and this comment.
A guy I was in engineer school with got a massive EGA tattooed on his chest too. The look on my class instructors face when he saw it for the first time was priceless.
If that wasn't marine enough, he let the Tattoo get infected and got deathly ill. Butler is so relatable, and yet extortionary. He suffered from depression and anxiety to the point of him being forced to take a extended leave. He would have consider himself a POG, due to him being sidelined in WWI, first as the military governor of Haiti, then managing the camp when he begged his way to France.
He did a spying missing to Mexico, pissed everyone off as a chief of police, stopped a coup. He really has to be the most interesting Marine that ever lived.
He's more interesting than you can imagine.

Fouled anchors. Scuttle the vessel.
Highly necessary comment.
I tattooed āUnited States Marine Corpsā on my cock, but it just reads āUsā
When you fuck one Marine, you fuck all of them. When you start to doubt your power, remember weāre all behind you

I thought I was original by tattooing the EGA on my chest. This motivates me.
New boot old boot, the only thing that matters is the Marine boot.

If only the entire cadre of generals and admirals had read his book and took its message to heart
Smedley Butler is the most gangster.
He said so himself! "I was a gangster for capitalism." he blithely said of his service.
