I had always enjoyed the title of Commander-in-Chief until I was informed … that the only forces that cannot be transferred from Washington without my express permission are the members of the Marine Corps Band. Those are the only forces I have. I want it announced that we propose to hold the White House against all odds at least for some time to come.
John F. Kennedy
As we celebrate Presidents Day Weekend I found this quote from our 35th, John F. Kennedy, about holding the White House “against all odds” with the help of the Marine Corps Band.
Posted as part of the Weekly Photo Challenge: Against the Odds.
That’s a cool quote! ☺️

Thanks, Patrick! I was happy to find one that included most of the WPC phrase *and* a president on this holiday weekend. 🙂
