Jokes aside, I’m contantly seeing more and more Marines attracted to weight lifting training. Running shoes don’t provide the necessary support to lift heavy weights, and doing so will cause additionally wear to them.
After a long day of work, hip pocket classes, and getting yelled at reading seems like a chore. The next best Christmas gift for a Marine is to encourage learning through audio. A convenient alternative Marines can use to learn while training in the gym, or driving to work. One of the first things I ask Marines when doing a counseling or mentorship session is what they’re reading.

Recommended books are categorized mainly by rank, but there are also suggestions based on certain topics such as Aviation and Leadership.

(Please don’t click on either of those links if you’re easily offended by profanity or if your challenge coin collection is a prized possession). Marine Corps dress blues are the greatest uniform in the US military, and possibly the world — it’s science. Every Marine probably has a half-dozen pint glasses with their unit insignia on them from Birthday Balls and Mess Nights. A large chunk of that spending goes towards a sword, which is a required uniform item for officers. This, despite the fact that it’s rarely used outside of weddings and Birthday Balls.

While they won’t have the glass front that you’d get on a shadowbox, some shops will offer to add shelves or notches to hold additional mementos.

Choose from MARINES, Semper Fi, or 244th Birthday engraving on the front. You can have the reverse side customized with name, rank, or any other details. A sword itself may be too pricey for what you can afford — or if the Marine may already own a sword. In that case, consider a display box similar to this one.
