I didn't think it was true. I KNOW how the Marines feel and I can tell you that the officers swear to protect and defend THE CONSTITUTION and there's no way they'd violate posse comitatus. No way. The older Marine veterans I meet (and those retired from the Air Force, Army and Navy) would NEVER EVER do such a thing. They're a rather impressive lot.

Not being from a military background, I'm in awe, but I always stand up straighter, feel safer when they're around and have to bite my lip to keep from bursting out laughing — even when they are in your face and down your throat — of course, as a Marine’s mother — I don't get that, but my eyes just twinkle when I see it. Reminds me of my mother when I was a child — you asked “how high on the way up” when she said jump.
