using a platoon of Marines to mess with US civilian workers at one of the bases. At gun point. With dogs.

So you are saying that your misconduct rose to such an extent, your trouble making stunk up the place sooo bad that we needed to pull a platoon out of the war effort to deal with your little sorry cry baby butt. They should have thrown you in the brig and let you rot, but hey its a kinder gentler compassionate war.

You were aiding the enemy then by causing all that crap and you are attacking the Marines even now, when the Marines have just lost 20 men in two days. You'll do anything for that paycheck won't you. Well as long as you continue to attack the Marines, IN A TIME OF WAR, your worthless.

I believe the event Eagle Eye is talking about was well documented. Several US contractors were inappropriately and without cause completely mishandled by some Marines.

Bad things happen in a war zone. I do not believe it was indicated that the contractor's behavior was causal.

Eagle Eye was over there for a couple of years doing a job and reporting back to FR. He's not anti-American by any stretch of the imagination, or anti-military or anti-Marine. He has reported simply on what he has seen and experienced.

Not the best of timing to bring up the negative experiences regarding the Marines I will grant you...and it is understandable why Marines and their kin would take exception to it on this thread...but that does not mean what he said was not accurate, just out of place on this thread perhaps.

In his post 450 he said it was not his intent to "go after the marines". I know for a fact that if the SHTF he would welcome them there covering his six.

Believe it or not, you are on the same side and probably agree on 95% of issues is my guess. The real enemy wants to see us all dead.

Just my two cents...I'm out.
