A friend’s stepson has recently gotten out of the Marines. They came and got him; he has to be at the Inauguration as a guard, I assume. I wonder why they’re using inactive Marines? I guess he might be in the Reserves, possibly. He’s currently in training for our local police department. He and his wife have three kids so, obviously, they’re worried about him.

Maybe it is to get our military in one place to harm them.

Marine reserves were called up.

When I was in the USAF (1970-1974), when we separated (i.e., when our 4-year enlistment was up, and we left active service) we were still on a 2-year “inactive reserve” status, and the formal discharge did not come until that period had passed. I assume that is still the way things are now.
