The great majority of Marines today live our core values on a daily basis and exhibit the true warfighting culture of our Corps. A few do not. This memorandum concerns them... because of the values our individual Marines embody: Honor, Courage, and Commitment....We must speak plainly and forcefully with our recruits and candidates from day one, and tell them that racists, sexists, bigots, homophobes, and bullies are not welcome...I expect leaders who see any sexism, racism, or other destructive attitudes in the ranks to step in immediately and intervene, just like you would to stop an impending safety mishap.

Male sexists, bigots, and homophobes—and perhaps racists, too—won ALL our wars-—especially the Big One—WWII!!!!

If it weren’t for these now despised and cancelled men, Hitler would have conquered America, and planted Nazism and genocide firmly in our country!!! And perhaps the West Coast and the Great Southwest would be under Japanese Imperial control, with more genocides and mass murders!!!!

PHOOEY to military wokesters!!!! PHOOEY again!!!!

I can almost hear and see the first gay Marine Corp TV ad during Super Bowl..........

Make me throw up it will

[daniel1212]

It means nothing but those willing to support the politically correct, pro-LGBTQ etc. society are welcome. Yet the most liberal states overall tend to have the lowest enlistment rates, and thus the enforced "woke" war against conservatives is contrary to an strong military against actual enemies.

Looking at each state’s share of recruits by the number of 18-to-24-year-olds in the state determines how well or how poorly a state is doing compared to its recruitable population. By that measure, the top five states in 2016 were: Hawaii, South Carolina, Georgia, Virginia and Florida. The five places with the smallest share of recruits were: Washington D.C., North Dakota, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York.

It’s somewhat curious to see North Dakota on the laggards list—until you understand that there is a close statistical link to recruiting and unemployment rates. In 2016, the official unemployment rate averaged 3.1% in North Dakota, as that state’s oil fracking boom was in full swing . - https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckdevore/2020/02/19/states-that-defend-uswhere-do-our-military-volunteers-call-home/?sh=2bde46be534c

It seems to me that Washington D.C. typically comes in with the worst states in multiple categories.

The Marine Corps always had the best recruiting commercials in a better age.

[PeteyBoy]

So maybe they did change “A few good men are hard to find”,

to

“A few hard men are good to find”.

I used to pull that on a guy at work many years ago. RIP Doby.

"I can almost hear and see the first gay Marine Corp TV ad during Super Bowl.........."

You mean following the Army's tragic march to Hell with its video ad effectively sadly salutes the flag of Sodom: the ad begins as an animated female soldier called “Emma” appears on screen. “It begins in California with a little girl raised by two moms.” The advertisement became the subject of mockery on Twitter, with one user pointing out its similarities with the recent “woke” Central Intelligence Agency recruitment advertisements. - https://americanmilitarynews.com/2021/05/heres-the-new-us-army-ad-drawing-controversy-as-woke-or-great-to-see-you-decide/

God made man and women distinctively different yet uniquely compatible and complementary, and only joined them together in marriage - as the Lord Jesus Himself specified (Mt. 19:4–6) - and Scripture only condemns homosexual relations wherever they are manifestly dealt with.

Yet there is still room at the cross for all who will come to God in repentance and faith, and trust in the Divine Son of God sent by the Father, the risen Lord Jesus, to save them on His account, by His sinless shed blood, and thus be baptized and live for Him. Acts 10:36-47

"...We must speak plainly and forcefully with our recruits and candidates from day one, and tell them that racists, sexists, bigots, homophobes, and bullies are not welcome..."

[SuperLuminal]

When I arrived at P.I. in 1951, these kinds of things seem to have been overlooked in favor of emphasizing the “kill-or-be-killed” attitude development...

In those days, the Corps was only interested in killing the Nation’s enemies...

What a pathetic bunch of Air Force wannabees they have turned out to be these days...

[robowombat]

Since John Lejuene was born and raised on a plantation in Louisiana before 1900 he would surely be purged from the Woke Corps.

[Howie66]

The bastards are working on that, make no mistake about it.

[353FMG]

It smells of high treason without consequences.

[daniel1212]

"It is those yassuh officers so determined to keep their retiremeent safe at the expense of mucking up the wbole organization."

Yes, I am sure there are many who do so, thereby fostering the end the US and thus the loss of their retirement. And soul.

I was called every name under the sun in boot camp.

Isn't SMMC Black well known at the bath houses around Quantico?

[robowombat]

At various times in recent years personnel were ordered not to bring Bibles orTestments into the CENTCOM Ops Center.

I think that the Southeast....and Texas...have always been in the forefront regarding those serving in our Armed Forces.

Yes, and while the dominion that the devil lusts for failed to be obtained by military means, the victorious generation (of my parents) that won WW2 saw and partly fostered the rebellion of offspring against traditional values, giving birth to a liberal educational and media elite who.among other deceptions, subscribe to and or employ the "share the wealth," victim-entitlement mentality, "occupy movement" tactic in order to selfishly obtain power by presenting themselves as saviors of the unjustly oppressed victims (of perceived or magnified injustices) who are owed other others merited, and who thereby are justified in appropriating such, usually via their liberal saviors.

Which is nothing now. Isaiah 14:13,14; Genesis 3)

[robowombat]

True. But not long before a large powerful recruit knocked down and broke the jaw of the assistant DI who called his mother a whore and a cxxt. Interestingly the recruit only got 60 days in the brig.

[daniel1212]

"I think that the Southeast....and Texas...have always been in the forefront regarding those serving in our Armed Forces."

Yes now the military is shooting itself in the foot by treating so many of such as undesirables.

"At various times in recent years personnel were ordered not to bring Bibles orTestments into the CENTCOM Ops Center."

And so many past leaders would order them not to bring their bodies into the CENTCOM Ops Center
