Yes, he was vaxxed. Nearly everyone in the military services has been vaxxed.

Did that contribute to the heart attack? I don't really know. I do know that there are ways to definitively answer that question. They are not being used.

I wonder what the rate of heart attacks is for the 20–40-year-old people in the Marines. Did it change recently?

Do we really believe we have a military that is still physically capable of fighting a major war? Maybe we should avoid getting into one.

These questions have answers, and the answers make a lot of difference.

USMC Commandant Gen Eric Smith was born 1964 or 1965 (age 58–59).   Your comment makes me wonder if you have ever been in the military?
