"Warriors being led by old women. They are so screwed."

Well said. Right on.
But it's even worse than that - - the PC hacks in charge of the Marines are wringing their hands that enlisted Marines aren't ratting out their brothers-in-arms!

When he issued the new directives on ethics training, Conway did not cite those cases but did make reference to a survey released two weeks ago that found 40 percent of more than 400 Marines questioned would not report a fellow Marine for killing or wounding an innocent civilian.

I don't know what sickens me more - - that only 40% of Marines understand the meaning of "semper fidelis" or that Conway and his ilk are disappointed that 40% DO understand the meaning.

...wringing their hands that enlisted Marines aren't ratting out their brothers-in-arms!

Without witnesses willing to implicate their "fellow" Marines, how are they ever going to manage the prosecutions they seem to enjoy so much?

Were I a Marine or a soldier from any branch of service, it would take extraordinary circumstances before I would even think of betraying any of my brother warriors.

Semper Fi is not just an archaic motto given lip service by tired old men, it SHOULD be a way of life and no Marine or warrior of any stripe should ever betray it. Unfortunately, America by and large has abandoned the concepts of honor and duty and that is being reflected in OUR leaders at home as well as those directing our warriors to die in ridiculously futile operations.

They kill off those few men and women who have the heart to step up and serve the country in foreign adventures so they have fewer resisters here when time comes to betray what the country once stood for. This I believe.
