The Armstrong and Gettyshow.

If you are a Marine, we have a family member.

There was a Marine. You probably know that's the Marine Ham and it's the anniversary of the founding of the Marine Corps.

That's why we're playing that today. Happy 247th birthday. A number of Marines have pointed that out and are wishing each other a Semper-Fi indeed.

Older than the country. 1775. The Marine Corps.

Fantastic. And the Marines as well as our soldiers and sailors and National Guardsmen and Coast Guard folks in the rest have been protecting our country and our rights for our entire history including right now.

And sometimes they run into really rough times whether through injury, brain injury, illness, post-traumatic stress disorder, whatever.

And Warrior Foundation Freedom Station is there for them and does miraculous work for them. I mean they save lives.

So we're raising money for Warrior Foundation Freedom Station this week with a goal of hitting a half a million dollars by close of business tomorrow. It's very easy to donate you go to Armstrong and getty.com and donate.

And I'm going to hit you with the total here in a second but some of the people that have donated this just came in two minutes ago.

Jack's holy sock in for a thousand dollars. A thousand dollars. Thank you, Mr. Sock. You see you can donate under your own name anonymously or you can make up an allegedly funny name as so many do.

$100 from Erica the Goldfish. Can I feed her if you don't know that story? It's a classic on the show. Stop bringing that up. It's so weird.

$25 from Remember the Edmund Fitzgerald. What the hell Donald Trump's come over in for 50 $50 from resist we much we must and we will much about that be committed.

Well played.

Yeah.

Oh, madam. Well played.

That's a sentence correct that's absolutely amazing but let's get a total because that factors into a challenge we've got we've got to get a total first right. Be able to know where we're going. How are we going to get to know knowing where we are.

The time for us to do what we are doing is time.

Glad to sit there.

Hit the drums. Glad to Susan Marine Corps. Appreciate your service.
