Semper Fidelis

 

Something for the weekend.  Semper Fidelis (1888), by John Philip Sousa, the official march of the Marines.  I have gotten a lot of joy out of Sousa over the years after first being introduced to him courtesy of Popeye cartoons on television when I was a small child:

Great one, Don! I had forgotten the Popeye connection entirely. BTW, there is an excellent CD of Sousa marches played by the Marine Band, and their rendition of Semper Fi has made it one of my favorites.
