The last I heard, he and his friends were still trying to get a few of these marines on “reduced charges” like “manslaughter” or “negligence”.

Use of a lower case M when referring to members of the United States Marine Corps is ill advised. These men are Marines.

Yes they are.

And all Marines in or out of active duty are still Marines.

The only Marine that qualifies as an Ex-Marine is Murtha.
