Nice. But sergeants aren’t officers. Of course, we should be grateful the reporter got their branch right.

Sergeants are officers: non-commissioned officers.

” Of course, we should be grateful the reporter got their branch right.”

So true, 2ndDivisionVet.

The reporter heard “Non-Commissioned Officer” once and thought “Oh, they’re officers!”

But you’re right, we should be glad he got the branch right.

I work with a retired Marine O-7 who I see once a week or so. He’s quality people, and they’re serious about the “no Marine left behind” thing. I ran into him at dinner last night, and he and another notable member of the community, who’s also a retired Marine, had just come from a board meeting of the area Marine Benevolent Fund, or whatever the real name is.

A heavily decorated marine who served in Vietnam that I’m friends with just did the same for a fellow marine who saved his life at khe son . War must create incredible bonds. His friend past way from complications from agent orange they believe. Very sad .
