Did not know Shields was a Marine.
“Officers eat last” is a great tradition, and a line frequently employed at family and friends gatherings, along with “Today Devil Dogs!!!” in an attempt to get the younger ones through the serving line and seated at the table.
Excellent Tyrone! Terrific pivot by Shields.
