No, we haven't contacted the USMC.  Honey, there are approx. 2200 Marines per ship in addition to everyone else.  I think the MC have more important issues at hand.  I believe my daughter is going to AT&T to get a new phone.  After dealing with Verizon the past few days, I believe she has just given up and going to do whatever it takes to be available for a phone call from her Marine.
