This Marine MP still may face Marine discipline for allowing his friend to take his sidearm, and for grabbing the pistol out of the car over a nightclub fight in the first place.
While I know the whole “Once a Marine, always a Marine” tradition, since he’s a Marine veteran rather than active duty, the Marine Corps won’t be able to discipline him.
"This Marine still may face Marine discipline....."
I doubt it. The video will go viral. People will be moved....I, myself, felt some wetness trickle down my face when the wife holding the child covered her face after being overwhelmed by the joyous news.
I don't think it would be a smart move by the Corps brass to now go against the intent of the pardon and to go after the decorated Marine, his wife and child, public opinion...and the wrath of God, in this case, Gov. Christie.
I'll bet all charges will be dropped.
What a happy Easter for this military family. Thank you, Governor, for making my day !

Since he had served as military police I would imagine he might have thought he could break up the barroom fight. For me he has the benefit of the doubt.
Thanks. I was thinking of a different case. NJ is nuts in regards 2nd Amendment. It’s hard to keep track of which crazy.
