After reading the title of this article you may be thinking this is a Babylon Bee article but the answer is no.
A recent report commissioned by the Corps raises “concerns” over Marines using the terms “Sir” or “Ma’am” while addressing drill instructors due to Gender Neutrality worries.

Per the Marine Corps Times:
A new academic report on efforts to integrate Marine Corps boot camp recommends dropping gender-specific salutations for drill instructors, but service leaders are not convinced they want to take that step.
The lengthy report, commissioned by the Corps from the University of Pittsburgh in 2020 and completed in 2022, points out that half of the military services already have done away with gendered identifiers for training staff.
“The Army, Navy, and Coast Guard effectively de-emphasize gender in an integrated environment,” the report states. “Instead of saying ‘ma’am’ or ‘sir,’ recruits in these Services refer to their drill instructors using their ranks or roles followed by their last names. Gendered identifiers prime recruits to think about or visually search for a drill instructor’s gender first, before their rank or role.”
Good one!
For anyone in the Corps.....go ahead and get out if you can.
Take him deer hunting when it’s a really, really cold morning.
This proves it. The covid injection has destroyed their mind. These people are supposed to be battle ready and they’re worried about this crap? People are talking about how the vax has changed personalities among their associates.
Is this a Milley directive?
” No one is going to stop it”
That is what Russia and China are for—they are going to have to do the work Americans won’t do.
(Notice Russia does not discriminate against ethnic Russians and China does not discriminate against ethnic Chinese. That is what winning looks like.)
“Yes, They/Them/Their!”
It’s Drill Sergeant in the Army. Male of female, doesn’t matter. I was taught early on, “Don’t call me sir! I work for a living!”
So, the Marines are getting with the program! Hooah!
The Communist Purge Continues To Grow Exponentially & Nothing Is Being Done About It!
I weep for my beloved Corps.

Yes, Comrade Officer!
So we’re going to start hollering, “Yes, Drill Instructor!” like the Army.

When I was in basic at Fort Leonard Wood in 82, we referred to the drill sergeants by their rank. Yes sergeant first class, yes staff sergeant etc...
