Didn't see this posted. Not having served in the military, I don't know what this means.

When I joined the Corps we were issued solid green utilities and khaki trousers and shirts. In fact, graduation was in our khakis. Not sure why they were done away with.

Every time we get a new Commandant, he wants to change something. Hopefully this one will let them roll their sleeves up again.

Remember a couple of years ago they were talking about changing the Dress Cover? That didn't go too well.

Unisex jumpers?????

"Tell it to the Marines - they are getting mandatory training on being sympathetic listeners - courtesy of Obama the Ravager of all things strong"

Now for a short public service announcement to all on FR:
We need to ensure we don't get another Obama-like America Hater as the next President.
The best way to ensure that is to actively support a candidate as the next President.
I prefer Cruz and my money goes to his campaign, hence the Cruz link. If you like someone else, donate to him/her (find your own link to do it) and if you use FR and don't donate, then please don't complain about the welfare leeches or those who have Obama Phones because, functionally, you are no different than any other who enjoys the fruits of others' work for your own benefit.

PS - If you are one of those who cannot afford even a small donation to FR or a candidate, God Bless and happy FReeping!.....

GO CRUZ!! Keep it up Trump!!

Donate to FR

Donate to Cruz

Donate to FR

I kinda know what this means (not a Marine, so not positive), but I am 100% positive that most of the commenters didn’t read the article.

Adding an Umbrella holder in case they ever run into Obama.

I have served, and I have a lot of doubts about what it means. Bad enough the Clinton years gave everybody the Monica beret.

And it gives the term joint services a whole new meaning....

And it reminds me of something...similar... from a few decades past....
