    The Eagle, Globe and Anchor is earned by Marines during Marine Corps recruit training. After weeks of training, the recruits earn the small piece of metal and the title United States Marine. Both active and retired Marines easily recognize the symbol. This Eagle, Globe and Anchor was given to me before my first deployment to Afghanistan by Staff Sgt. Charles E. Fessler, who served with 1st Marine Airway during World War II.
