U.S. Military changing uniform regulations, fitness standards to be more woke, inclusive

Various branches of the U.S. military, long steeped in tradition, are now making changes… to accommodate wokeness.

For example, the U.S. Marine Corps is altering its uniform regulations. The erstwhile “Leathernecks” are introducing new maternity clothes for pregnant Marines. Other changes include an allowance of increased hair length, the edging up of one's hairline, and additional manicure options for female Marines. I guess this shouldn’t be too surprising since even the Navy SEALS have gone woke.

First Lt. Phillip Parker, a spokesman for the Marine Corps Training and Education Command, recently told the Marine Corps Times the changes are intended to help "positively impact diversity, equity and inclusion.”

Inclusion? In the Marines? Is this a good idea? Would femininity have aided the Devil Dogs on Bataan or Corregidor in WWII? Should people of all genders, ages and physical fitness levels be welcomed into the Corps? Should diversity, equity and inclusion trump combat readiness and effectiveness and the ability to protect and aide your fellow Marine —and, if necessary—carry him off the battlefield…dead or alive?

Gee, I can’t fight today. They gave me blue bullets instead of pink ones.

what next, an entire division of Marines over 40 and over 250 lbs. and another one made up exclusively of trans-men?

I can see their new recruiting poster now, “The Marines are looking for a few good trans-men”.

I just wonder how they are going to give special privileges and exemptions to women when there is no definition of a woman and anyone can move effortlessly from man to woman and back in the blink of an eye.

Will the new woke military motto be “Run Away! Run Away!”

But you have to be in shape to be capable of running away...

That’s good...
It will be more in line with the conversion to cotton-ball ammo, rubber bayonets, and helmets with built-in hair dryers...

This is idiocy & if it keeps up, we won’t have a military. What do you suppose would happen next? If we even want to have a country, we best get a real CIC real soon & build from there.
