No, not woke and not gay, but a politician not a war fighter. He reeks of your typical Marine Corps O6 and above. His awards say he served in country and MAY have once been a war fighter, or not. Ribbons only tell a small part of their story. But Marine Officers quickly turn from being lions to lambs for an eagle or a star. They become arrogant and would destroy anyone if it would further their career. The Corps needs fewer officers and more hard nosed SNCO's.

I knew of a senior Marine Officer who pandered constantly to the Montford Point Marines. Those men deserved recognition as part of the greatest generation that won a war and in this case broke down racial barriers. But the Colonel did not give two $hits about those men it was one photo op after another. Every time there was a command or base function of any type he had Montford Point Marines there along with the press. It worked for his career. Pandering to gays and bashing whites will get you promoted because the Lambs run the Corps once more. (For the record, I spent 12 years in the Suck, and spent nearly a decade with them as a Sailor and later a Contractor). I love Marines, they are a sight to behold in a war. But I despise the Corps, it is not your Grandfathers Corps and Chesty would have been forced to resign his commission in today's DEI Marine Corps.
