Description:Home is where you find it. The fighting qualities of the Marines is well known, but their sense of humor is running a good second. Their humor coupled with their adaptability to make the best of an impossible situation is demonstrated by these two Marines on Tarawa who have named their dugout 'The Lousy Lousy Lounge.' (National Archives, USMC hdqtrs #63,484).
