USMC Force Recon Take Down Somali Pirates
This has been the subject of another thread ( Marines recapture a vessel seized by Somali Pirates ) but I just had to post this more detailed piece on the US forum too as I feel a bit like a proud granddad as this op involved my old unit.

SEMPER FI Marines"A democracy cannot survive as a permanent form of government. It can last only until its citizens discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority (who vote) will vote for those candidates promising the greatest benefits from the public purse, with the result that a democracy will always collapse from loose fiscal policies, always followed by a dictatorship." Lord Thomas MacCauley 1857
