Always faithful is the English equivalent of 'Semper fi'. In the word by word translation, the adverb 'semper' means 'always'. The syllable 'fi' is an abbreviation of the adjective 'fidelis', which means 'faithful'.

It's the motto of the Marine Corps of the United States of America. Marines take their military service seriously. They don't see it as ending with honorable discharge or retirement. Instead, they see as lifetime their commitment to the defense of the United States of America as a country, a government, and a people.
