I've looked at all your links, Mr. Foxtrot Charlie, and I can't say whether they are real or not, although they certainly appear to be authentic. Could you please be a little more specific as to why you think the Gunny's letter is a fake? Before you wear yourself out, contemplate [and gracefully accept] the fact that the average Marine Staff NCO is better read, far more intelligent, more articulate, better trained, far more deadly [aimed, semi automatic rifle fire]and far more successful with the ladies than ALL of the doggie company grade and 90% of the doggie field grade officers. My point being, the fact that the piece is very well written does not support your aspersions. I knew a Gunny who had two footlockers, one with his gear and one filled with his books, Shakespeare, Chaucer, Milton, Dante, Thucydides. I speak with total objectivity and Semper Fi to you, pal.

Whew, you've go that right...my hubby is a MSgt and is such a fantastic writer that you can truly "SEE" what he is describing!
I'm not sure this is from a Marine though. They sure seem to respect the rules about political "stuff" while on the job. (at least in my experience...)
