Hummmmm
My son did not join the military to "become a profesional killer" We did have discussions about the use of deadly force, ROE, what gets you put in jail and what might save your a$$ on the battle field. The Marines DO train with less than lethal arms - and still worship at the fet of Markmanship.

He will get out at some point and has indicated he wants to work in a police dept.

I perfer to call todays Marines - the 21st centery Samurai.
With all the baggage and histroy that word brings with it.

Sleep well tonight my friends, my son has your back covered.

Thanks - I trust he is a peacemaker and one hell of a killing machine.

I wouldn't. The Samurai were not much more than the enforcers of the Shinto Military Junta. Our Marines are NOT part of a military run government.
