I like this line from Full Metal Jacket -

"But always remember this: Marines die. That's what we're here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever, and that means you live forever."

His time here was well spent.  He will live forever in his work.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
