That Famous Presidential Marines Quote?

That Famous Presidential Marines Quote?:

"Have been searching for the original author of
this to no avail, so I would appreciate feedback
from those who read this--hopefully, from some
old salt who remembers the truth (you boots don't
know any better), or better even a specific
reference.

Somebody out there must have a better
memory than I do--my thanks in advance.

This could be another myth in development here.
For the record, I don't want to see this become another
legend like the phony Chapultapec, red NCO stripe story,
etc.! (sometimes referred to as a bloodstripe)

Semper Fidelis

GySgt USMC (Ret.)
