“Yeah. Well, anyway, somewhere--[laughter]--somewhere between the Army Engineers and the Navy Seabees, you move over a half a million cubic yards of earth. You brought enough gravel to lay a two- lane road all across the State of Missouri. In less than 5 months, you built 160 sea huts, a chapel, a gym, a hospital, mess halls, a PX, a barber shop, and an aviation area. I want to salute a few of the responsible units. Don't be shy: the Headhunters of the Engineer Brigade 1st Infantry Division; the Blue Devils of the 3504 Parachute--I just want to note for the press that the Blue Devils of the 3504 Parachute Infantry Regiment are also known as ``devils in baggy pants''--the Steel Tigers of the 177 Armor Battalion; the Bone Crushers of the 2d Platoon Bravo Company; the Blue Spaders of the 126 Infantry Regiment; the Hellcats of the 299th Forward Support Battalion; the Eagles of Task Force 21 Aviation Regiment; the Spartans of the 793d Military Police Battalion; the Dagger Brigade of the 1st Infantry Division; the Navy Seabees of Battalion 3. [Unit members cheered as they were mentioned.]”
