Fang: So you were in the service?
Dog: That's right. Six years in the canine corps. Well, I gotta run. See you around.
Fang: Hey, thanks for your service. Semper Fido!
Semper Fidelis distinguishes the Marine Corps bond from any other. It goes beyond teamwork—it is a brotherhood that can always be counted on. Latin for “always faithful,” Semper Fidelis became the Marine Corps motto in 1883. It guides Marines to remain faithful to the mission at hand, to each other, to the Corps and to country, no matter what. Becoming a Marine is a transformation that cannot be undone, and Semper Fidelis is a permanent reminder of that. Once made, a Marine will forever live by the ethics and values of the Corps.

“Becoming a Marine is a transformation that cannot be undone,”Reminds me of a great T-Shirt I saw:“Not as leanTwice as meanStill a Marine!”XD
I salute all our troops, and veterans! Thank you for serving our country, and God Bless you!

Joke somewhat diluted (or strengthened, according to your view) because the name “Fido” comes directly from “fidelis” anyway.
