Summary

[edit]
Description

"'News to you, pal, but old stuff to me", says Jiggs IV. 'I thought everybody knew that General Holcomb, Marine Corps Commandant, had '1775' on his license plates - and that's the year the Marine Corps was founded!' Jiggs sniffs his disdain at those who didn't know this association of dates, as he visits the Commandant's car at headquarters of the Corps in Washington, D.C. Fourth of his famous line of bulldog mascots, Jiggs is official Leatherneck sergeant (honorary) at Quantico, Va base."
